I decided to teach four of my girl students how to play MASH the other day. It went over so well, that I decided to try another higher level, conceptual idea. The pictures below are the drawings they made as I prompted them through a personality test. Traditionally, this personality test isn't drawn out, but due to limited English skills, I figured this was the best way to do it.
The first step is to have them draw a box. I don't provide any prompting, but ask them to draw their box as specifically as they can. (This represents how they view themselves... big, small, shiny and polished or old and worn down.)
Next, they draw a ladder. Once again, there's no prompting them beyond reminding them that it can be any size, color, etc. (This represents their friendships, tall and plentiful, strong or weak.)
The third item is to draw a flower/flowers. (This is their future - colorful and plentiful, specific, or rich.)
Fourth is a horse. (This is their significant other - current or future.)
And last is a storm.(The problems in their life - looming and scary, or off in the distance and exciting.)
Apparently she will date someone with spiky hair and short legs. ;) |
