| AIMS OF THE ACTIVITY |
| The goal to use metaphors of adolescence is to accompany the participants to reflect on what has been adolescence, on what was his/her own experience. |
| DESCRIPTION / METHODOLOGY |
| The game can be played in the classroom. The facilitator will give each participant a sheet “my adolescence was a bit ‘as …”. It will invite the participants to review the proposed metaphors and will be asked to choose one. The chosen metaphor will be the one through which every participant will have had the opportunity to reflect on their adolescence and their own experiences as a teenager.
In the debriefing, you can turn on the discussion and comparison on the presented metaphors. Participants will observe their actions with young people after focused and have rediscovered the photograph of his/her adolescence. |
