Un guide étape par étape pour jouer le jeu

1

Look at the 12 situations depicted on the panel. All situations relate to emotional changes young people go through during puberty (see extra game information).

2

Choose one of the 12 situations on the panel. You can do this in many different ways:

  • Ask one of the players to spin the arrow on the Colours Game game board to determine a colour. Discuss the situation on the Emotional Changes in Puberty game board with the same colour.
  • Ask one of the players to close his/her eyes and to move a finger over the game board until one of the other players says "stop". The situation the player points to is the situation that will be discussed.
  • Ask one of the players to choose the situation he/she is most interested in.
  • Throw a coin/die/... on the game board.
  • ....


3

Ask the players to describe the situation on the panel.

4

Ask the players if they can identify with the situation. Ask them to jump left if they do and jump right if they don't. After they have jumped, you can ask one or some of the players why they do or do not identify with the situation depicted and open up a discussion.

5

Ask the players if they feel positive, negative or neutral about the situation. Ask them to jump forwards if they feel positive about it, jump backwards if they feel negative about it and to stand still if they feel neutral about it. Open up a discussion afterwards. You can ask, e.g., what they (could) do to feel better in a given situation.

6

Open up the discussion further, asking questions such as:

  • How do you think the girl/boy on the panel will deal with this situation? How would you?
  • What would the reaction of others (friends, parents, teacher, ...) be in this situation? What would you want their reaction to be?
  • Do you think the girl/boy on the panel talks with other people about his/her feelings in this situation? Would you? With whom?
  • ...
7

Ask one of the players to choose another situation and repeat the steps above.

  • Give each situation a number from 1 to 12 and ask the players to rate them from "most recognisable" to "least recognisable". You can ask all players to do this individually or come to a consensus as a group.
  • Top 3: Ask the players to choose the 3 situations that are most important / positive / challenging / ... for them.
  • Draw a timeline with "past", "present" and "future" on the blackboard or on a piece of paper. Ask the players which of the emotional changes they already experienced, are experiencing now and haven't experienced yet. The players can do this individually as well. You can ask them to compare their timelines and open up a discussion.
