activity of this session.
B. Summary
Summarize by saying:
“Each of you can probably identify things you have learned, as well as ways you have grown and
changed during this training program. The perspective of other people can give us new ideas about
ourselves and point out qualities we didn’t realize we had. I will hold onto your appreciation page
until the end of this session when you’ll have a chance to look at it and think about it.”

A. Project Presentations
Participants share the presentations that they prepared in Session 5.
Note: The length of time for this Information phase will vary depending upon the number of groups presenting. With more than

topics we have studied in this series of training classes. Now it’s time for each group to share its topic
and tell us why it is important and share any advice about using it in the future.”
- Allow 10 minutes for each group’s presentation. Follow each presentation with a hearty round of
applause. Then take three to five minutes to ask the following questions so each group can quickly
reflect on its presentation and receive some immediate feedback.
a. Ask the group that presented:
“What did you like most about your presentation?
Why do you think this topic is important for youth and young adults to know?”
b. Ask the whole group
“What did you like about this presentation?
What was something that the presentation helped you remember?

- Repeat Step 2 until all presentations have been made.
