January11th-15th

This week at Scott Carpenter the kids worked on Roadblocks and detours which helped them acknowledge the obstacles that may be keeping them back from their successes. Students were divided into groups and they all took turns trying to "drive" through the road blocks while having the blindfold on. Each time the road block was rearranged so that the driver did not know where they might be.
After this part we talked about roadblocks and detours and gave examples of both. The second part of this activity was one driver and the person behind them would be the vehicle. That student would guide them through the roadblocks and make sure that they would reach their destination. We had a discussion after wards about what they thought were roadblocks in their lives and what kind of detours they can take that can somewhat help them get to where they want to. We also talked about support groups and who or what could make their journey easier.
