ADOLESCENCE

An age of change, curiosity, challenge, and fear intertwined with choices to be made. Apart from physical changes, adolescents go through a lot of psychological changes as well. They constantly have to deal with circumstances and situations even though they aren’t equipped with the necessary for it. Adolescence is also a phase which should be entered into with a lot of expectations of and from the child, a time of joyous learning and experience. Equipping students to deal with issues during adolescence has been one of great importance.

A session was conducted for students of Grade VI on ‘The Psychological changes during Adolescence’. The approach was meant to be interactive and allowed for a forum where students could put forth their questions to be clarified, if any. Keeping in the mind the issue of sensitivity of the topic, the session was conducted separately, for boys and girls. The session was filled with guidelines on how to deal with the changes, the extent of what those changes could be enjoyed, and elements that will equip them to cope with challenging situations that are up ahead.
