Nom's Thoughts on Discussions

Day 9

In the space we talked about why there were children in the group and what we could do with children here. I wondered about what the adults do differently when children are in the pair or group, and do they find it harder when the children are in the group or pair.

In the group I feel that the adults don’t differ when talking to Leah and me and talk the same to us, and I feel that I want to be treated differently from Leah.

When we talk in a group sometimes its very difficult because the language they use I don’t really understand and I don’t know the meaning to some words, I wonder what it would be like for all the adults to talk in a way children can understand?

I enjoyed the first improvising bit when we stepped in the middle, I think I enjoyed it because it felt I could do anything and just express whatever I felt and it was good fun. The only worry was I didn’t know how far I could go with it- if the person was comfortable with me leaning all over them climbing on them and I felt uncomfortable with doing that.
