What do we do? - Youth attendants report



The project learning adventure Diversity and young people experience between 14 and 19 as they can pass on a positive approach to diversity through theater improvisation and theater games.

obtained with this cross-cultural and manual competence have been working four graduates of the project "adventure diversity" in two local schools with children's groups .

youth attendants Jula and Tomczak Kamila Zareba report:

On 26 April, we began our adventure with the youth accompanied with children from primary school Langer Graben in Schwäbisch Hall. We both attended the course "adventure diversity" and set ourselves a goal: we wanted to be young companions, used to share our knowledge and skills. And we do now!

Every Monday from 15.00 bis 16.30 Clock Clock we derive a group of 12 children, five girls and seven boys. Our students are between 10-12 years old and live in the district of Schwäbisch Hall. What do we do? This is not easy to describe. Certainly we do not a theater in the traditional sense. With different exercises that are connected to the theater, we want to allow children to experience something new and different than everyday life. We make games that they enjoy themselves and can contribute with all their energy, while having fun. Fun to be compulsory - even if the exercises sometimes stressful and in the opinion of the children even boring. However, everything we do, has its purpose and its function.

Above all, we are preparing exercises that can also enhance creativity, imagination, concentration and tolerance of children. As for the group: this is a great and interesting group. Each of them is very talented and brings his skills successfully in our program! The children have many exciting ideas and especially the desire to try everything! With each meeting, they are making progress - we are eager to see where we arrive at the end .

For us it is also important that the group can form a good community in which they treat each other with understanding and tolerant and accept each other. Our goal is to explore diversity in this group. The children have different interests and are of all ages. Even though each of them characterized by something else and something else brings, the mother tongue may not be the same and the home of each other cultures is shaped, they have much in common. There they join school, friendship, and even similar Problems. It is a friend and an adventure to watch them and learn by watching, discover new things about them and support them in their development.

We have tried many different exercises and find out what is better for your children best and where they have both fun and development opportunity. Our children may not, for example concentration exercises but games in which they can express themselves, such as the "game faces".

intend in the next few hours we practice, they already know, expand and new exercises that they can acquire new skills to implement. We are planning a demonstration at the end of the course for the parents and are already looking forward to the presentation of "our" children.
