ILT

Last week we had an ILT. This ILT was about changing bodies, puberty, friendship and friendship issues. My favorite part of the ILT was the physical theater.

We had to walk around randomly, and then our Drama teacher, told us to get into groups of 4. My group was a group of five. Luke, Bash, Daniel and Daniel were in my group. We had to choose a topic on Google Classroom and then there would be a folder of songs inside. The topics were Self Image, Family Relationships, Overcoming Hardships and Friendships. We chose Overcoming Hardships and the song in that folder that we chose was Bob Marley - Get Up Stand Up, which only Bash and Luke wanted to do, but when we tried to pick another song we were asked if it linked to our lives or something going on in our lives and we all said no. so then we were told to do the Bob Marley song even though that didn't really have a meaning either. But the rest of us dealt with. Then we had to come up with the moves and practice and on Friday we had to perform. We got an hour or 2 on Wednesday and 1 Hour or so on Thursday and 5 minutes to revise just before the performance on Friday.

The rest of the ILT was just talks. We had a talk with Mr Preston, Matthew, Roger and Cyndi. Mr Preston's talk was about changing bodies and hormones, Matthew's was about Self Image, and I can't really remember what Roger's was about because some of the boys in our group just wouldn't be quiet and wouldn't let Roger speak that much. But what I did hear from him, it was about friendships. Cyndi was talking about how you solve friendship problems and gave us a small task to do.

I think this ILT could have been improved by more activities because there was only one activity, and that was the physical theater.
