when i heard the topic of today's session "how to conduct a session effectively" , i thought we would be given a list of some do's and don'ts
the question that came in my dreams "how to make children meditate" was answered to some extent.
we discussed briefly about circle time. i liked the idea of first let the children experience and then decide about the different codes, instead of forcing the codes on them.
the concept of SPACE become more clear. Accepting a child is imp. not only physically but also mentally. accepting doesn't mean that i agree with the child. there are certain things that are/not acceptable to the facilitator and the group as a whole and they should be taken care of.
i even found a totally different face of a leader. a leader still leads by becoming a follower. i feel that a leader's role as a follower is more challenging. when you are not in the picture but your presence is felt.
that is what the facilitators at GK do. not lead us directly, but make us think by asking questions, giving activities, making us talk and keep quiet. they channelize our thinking. help us to make a beautiful necklace of beads that are scattered in our own brains and we are not aware of them.
still thinking on the PREPARE part for an effective session.
