Session 2: Looking forward
Goal: The children have made plans for their future and they have practised decision making.
Resources: Ball of wool/cotton/coloured thread.
Research beforehand what groups are locally available and advisable for the I DEAL groups to consider joining. Also decide before the session whether you feel it is advisable for the group to form a new group and what local adults (or yourself if realistic) could assist them in this endeavour. Be aware that it is easier to connect with an existing group. And the group should also be open for people not involved with I DEAL. Whether you talk about this issue of continuation depends on the possibilities and the rest of your program. Do not bring this up if this is not realistic or does not fit in the environment or program.
