Last week was more of a productive week now that our students are finally getting more work from their teachers for second semester. We had a great Homework session on Tuesday. The Mentees are now starting to stay up on their grades now from the beginning so they don't have to play catch up last minute.
On Thursday we did our favorite activity called The Maze Walk.
That's when our lead Mentors try to make a difficult maze with chairs and tables. The purpose is for the mentee (who is blind fold) to listen and trust their mentee to guide them through the maze while everyone else in the room screams and tries to misguide them .(the bad friends)
What we want the mentees to see is how there are a lot of bad friends trying to mislead them in the wrong direction but if they put trust into their Mentor, or the people who are trying to help they could be led in the right direction if they listen. We hope our mentees took in this lesson next time a "friend" asks them to ditch a day of school or do something the are not suppose to.
