Week 8: Forgiveness- The game we played is Telephone. Making mistakes in this game is very common and it's hard to get the whole message around the circle without it changing. This helped students practice forgiveness because they recognize that their classmates are going to mess up and that it's okay.
Week 7: Perspective/ Point of View- Students made shadow art in which they saw an object's shadow in a new way. They took that shadow and made it part of their design.
Week 6: Being Present- Students practiced focusing on one sense at a time as a way to present in the moment. They sat outside and first tried to hone in on their sense of hearing. Then sight, smell, and touch.
Week 5: Open-mindedness (game: closed eyed drawing for 30 seconds and trying to guess each other's picture)
