MENTORING ACTIVITIES BOX

Adele Clark & Jacqui Blades, Speechmark 2007

This activities box uses resource card which fit onto the box; students post their thoughts, initiated by images, into the slots on the cards to help open up discussion.

The unique design of the Mentoring Activities Box gives young people the chance to think about their problems before talking. This helps them to feel less daunted by the prospect of discussing difficult issues and creates an environment where they feel able to 'open up' enabling a mentoring relationship to develop.

An ideal resource for use in all schools or within other therapeutic environments by social services, youth workers or foster parents.
