Exploring Personal Identity Pieces

Additional Details

Growing up isn't easy. In Journeys: Paths to Adulthood, youth learn about all the things that shape their identities and how to maintain a positive sense of self on the road through adolescence to becoming strong, healthy young adults. In this dynamic lesson, participants will explore personal identity through interactive activities and discussions. Starting with the "First Impressions" game, students will observe a printed sheet of various objects to understand how perceptions can change over time, reflecting the complexity of identity. They will then engage in the "Identity Pie" activity, where they identify key traits of a favorite TV or movie character and create their own Identity Pie, reflecting on aspects like interests, values, and personality traits. The lesson concludes with sharing sessions, fostering connections and reinforcing the idea that identity is multi-faceted, encompassing both visible and invisible elements.
