Class 108'15 used this activity during the session on Spirit (Class spirit)
Many classes used this activity during the session on Self-Love Construct a "magic box" which can be any kind of a box with a mirror placed to reflect the face of anyone who looks inside.
1. Ask the group, "Who do you think is the most special person in the whole world?" 2. After allowing the person to respond individually, continue: "I have a magic box with me today, and each of you will have a chance to look inside and discover the most important person in the world." 3. Ask the Year ones who they think they will see. 4. Give each person a chance to look into the box after you 5. Explain that the box is valuable because it shows that each of them is special. Note: Year Ones might ask how it is possible for everyone to be the special one. There can be a discussion about every individual’s uniqueness and that everyone is special in their own ways. Class 107'15 used this activity during the session on Self-Management 1. PSLs to tell Y1s that there are two types of time - Clock Time and Real Time:
- In Clock Time, 1 minute has 60 seconds, 1 hour has 60 minutes and so on. Everything is fixed and time passes at the same pace regardless of the situation - In Real Time, time is relative. It flies or drags depending on the activity you are doing. Real Time is mental, and you are able to create and thereby manage it 2. PSLs to share 8 tips of time management with Y1s: a) Make a to-do list every day b) Keep your work with you c) Don't be afraid to say no d) Find your productive time e) Create a dedicated study time f) Budget your time g) Don't get sidetracked h) Get a good night's sleep Class 107'15 used this activity during the session on Respect 1. Ask random pairs of Y1s to come up to the front 2. Ask them a simple question e.g. "What's your favourite subject?" or "What do you enjoy doing most?" 3. On the count of 3, both of the Y1s will have to answer the question at the same time. 4. Continue the game for a few more rounds. The Y1s will be bound to have different answers, but sometimes, coincidentally, they may have the same answer. This shows that different members of the class have different likes and dislikes. Everyone is somewhat similar and different in character, so we should learn to respect each other for who we are. Class 101'15 used this activity during the session on Introduction 1. Separate the class into two teams, each team on one side of the class.
2. Use a blanket to block the teams' view of each other. 3. One person from each side sits in front of the blanket. 4. When the blanket is dropped, each person on both sides of the blanket are to say each other's names. 5. Whoever says the other person's name first is the winner for that round. 6. The person who loses the round will join the opposing team. 7. The team with more people in the end wins overall. Class 101'15 showed this video during the session on Self-Love Class 101'15 used this activity during the session on Self Management 1. Y1s to be split into their support groups.
2. Each group will be given a scenario and have to prepare a skit on how to tackle the issue. 3. The group will present the skit. Scenario A Perfectionist - stays up late to make sure work is perfect but in turn harms own performance and health It is already 12am on a Monday but you are not done with your work. Furthermore, you always check and review your work before submission to make sure there are no careless mistakes. You are aware that in order to perform well in school and maintain your health at the same time, you need to get more sleep than you usually do. What would you do in this situation? Scenario B Time Management Your favourite show airs tonight but you have a huge pile of homework to complete when you get home. Furthermore, you have been reading a really interesting book which you just cannot seem to put down. Watching your favourite show, reading your book and finishing your homework will not be possible in the short period of time you have after getting home from school. What would you do in this situation? Scenario C Trying to do everything - Over-committed till some areas of responsibility (e.g. family) are neglected You have a project which weighs 20% of your overall grade and it's due 2 days later, but it's your grandmother's birthday today, and the whole family will be going to her house to celebrate her birthday and have a family reunion. On top of that, you are supposed to help your teacher collate the class' Math assignment scores by the next day. What would you do in this situation? Class 101'15 used this activity during the session on More About Me 1. Have a small parcel with 4 layers of wrapping paper.
2. Get the Y1s to sit in a circle. 3. When the music starts, they are to keep passing the parcel around the circle until the music stops. 4. Whoever is holding on to the parcel when the music stops has to tear off one layer of the wrapping paper. 5. There will be a piece of paper inside with either a reward or forfeit. 6. The student must act accordingly to what is written on the paper. 7. Continue the game until the last layer of wrapping paper is left. 8. Whoever opens it will receive a gift. Hi PSB!
