BGC

My visit at the Boys and Girls' Club yesterday went very well.  The student I had seen last time had completed her interview, and she had obtained an amazing amount of wisdom from her grandmother.  With all of that great information, she, Ryan, and I started to brainstorm for her script.  We started off with 3 things about her grandmother that she definitely wanted to include, whether it was about her personality, her past, or a story she told.  Then, we suggested she write down a couple of pearls of wisdom she received from her grandmother that she really wanted to share.  She elaborated extensively on how her grandmother's wisdom applied to some examples in her life, and we encouraged her to include some of that information in her script and maybe even to go back to her grandmother to see if she learned those pearls of wisdom at some memorable point in her life.  I feel really good about how our session went yesterday, and I know that our student is well on her way to something great!
