COMMUNICATING
What do you bring to the table when you talk with teens?
Leadership Institute, Session 4, April 30, 2009
Present: Mala Cornelius, Brittani Anderson, Tene Howard and Kathleen Kanet
Tene began by asking getting them to think about what they want to accomplish in the session and what would be their goals. She asked the question. “What do you bring to the table when you talk with teens?”
These are some of the things they brainstormed:
- The adults should try to feel comfortable with talking with the teens.
- Themes adults should be comfortable are the concerns of youth
- Adults need to be open to change
- Adults need to Listen, communicate and talk with one another and to the youth
- Adults to listen to experience of the Leadership Group
- Adults can learn how to create a program like ours
- Adults can learn about the challenges, the success
- Adults will see how important communication as been
- Adults will see how space is very important in planning
- Adults will see how active the youth have to be in planning
The Leadership institute began to talk about how to structure the session, how to set it up
- Circle is important
- Begin with warm-ups maybe two
- Need to model what we want the adults to learn
- Ask “How do you feel?” “What can you use in the future?”
- Write a role plan
- Look at different ways of role play
- Use poems, a literary piece---Create movement among them
- Give them something when they leave.
Next meeting we need to set the schedule and give out roles to the members of the Leadership Institute so they can prepare.
Kathleen will make arrangements for having the meeting at All Saints on Sunday May 17 at 12:00 after Sunday liturgy. We will save May 31, as another day to prepare.
