Last week my students finished up their Identity Tattoos. Each design has 6 symbols incorporated into one piece: What they're most passionate about, their most prized material possession, their most prized non-material possession, their education and career goals, 3 hidden descriptive words and use of their life motto/quote in the banner. A lot of the kids went all out, it was amazing to see them dive into their creativity together! We discussed the benefits of art therapy and the importance of creative expression in understanding our emotions.
Students then spent the last half of last week completing interviews so that we can get everyone paired with their mentors/mentees. It was fun seeing them interview each other and gain an understanding of one another on a one on one level with great intention for connection in order to find the best match. This week we begin our seat changes based on who got paired with who and we'll be diving into pair introductions & Mentoring 101!
Until next week,
Ms. Castro
