Description of Activity
Participants play a game replicating real-life situations involving ethical decisions.
At the end of the game, ask where they saw that Star’s good character seeds had been nurtured, and where did they see Star’s negative seeds at work? How could Star have used these situations to nurture their own more positive traits?
Including All Participants
If some participants have limited mobility, you might wish to have the group remain seated, or at least give individuals a choice between standing and sitting when they speak.
