Girls Talk: Social Group (Ages 9-12)

This class will be an opportunity for girls to chat and socialize with one another.  We will meet each time and talk about anything from what happened last week, what we want to be when we grow up, and things they like to do for fun. Each week I will have some fun questions, but the goal is for the students to steer the the conversations and freely talk.

This is a student led class. I will facilitate the class by monitoring the conversation and providing them with discussion topics if needed. The goal of this class is to allow the girls to engage in respectful, free conversation in which they can have fun and an outlet to connect with their peers.  This class does not have a set schedule of games, topics, or activities. I want the girls to influence those things. However, I will have some things listed below incase they arent able to keep the conversation going. 

This will be a safe place where students will feel comfortable to share their thoughts, ideas, and feelings.  To ensure this, my main role will be to include all group members and allow equal opportunities for them all to talk and ask questions.  As the group facilitator, I will also try to gently encourage group members to share and support them if they feel nervous to do so.

I look forward to meeting everyone and I can't wait to chat!!!
