Reflection

Today we did some exercises to affirm each other on their strengths. We did writing of notes/letters to each other, and had a bit of exercise where we walked around in the class and tell other classmates about them.

My favourite part was actually the exercise where we had to walk around the class like zombies, tell the person that we see next to us things that we think they should improve on and tell them their strengths.
At first it was quite weird as we had to walk around aimlessly and stop suddenly beside someone we do not know much about. Worse, we had to tell them to improve on certain things! I think we are all good people because our comments to each other were constructive and not mean at all:)

After the fun, we settled down and were told that whatever comments or compliments that we gave to our classmates, they were all things that we wanted or had in ourselves too. It may sound corny, but it really hit me that whatever thing I told my classmate was what I wanted myself too!

All these years with new classes and new teachers, I have never played games like those we played in 4-5 at all. I believe we would have known each other better now and I really hope 4-5 would be a really bonded class!

Yes i agree with you completely about the part where we tell things to people which we wanted to do it ourselves! I guess most of us also accepted the constructive comments that our classmates have given us whether they know us well or not, this way we can get to know more about people whom we are not close to!

Yes! To stop in front of someonoe whom we don't really talk to is weird and to praise or commment them is evern weirder. But i think, it is very funny that we are only walking around in circles because we see where we walk but if blind folded, there are risks too.
