Is there an easy trick to "keep up" in a Jam session?

Hey guys.  I've been playing only 6 months now - I know 5 basic chords, and several rolls.  As a former guitar player, I could easily join a jam session and keep up by simply strumming and doing a very few riffs.  I have never done any "breaks".

Is there an equivalant to strumming on the banjo? I simply don't have the chops to do breakdowns and wish to be able to join in - but I don't want to mess up everyone in the group!  Any tips and tricks would be appreciated. (or if you could point me in the right direction, that would be great too!)

Thanks,

Lyle
