Joining as a Group

The goal of Session 2 is to have the group members gain some experience and trust working together as a group. In the “Opening,” the students are introduced to a different warm-up exercise and receive a review of the group expectations and norms that were set in Session 1. In the “Body,” the students work together as a group to get through the challenging (and non-verbal) “alligator swamp.” In the “Closing,” the students are asked to reflect on their experience in the group both verbally (by stating what they liked or learned) and in writing (by filling out the weekly survey).
