Instructions

WHO AM I?
To carry out the activity below, Identity Circles, first you will need to carry out identity work to guide the girls’ thinking. The aspects could include; our physical appearance (eye colour, hair, glasses etc.), facts about ourselves and what we are like on the inside (religion, age, hobbies, personality etc.), our experiences (in terms of people and places) and our hopes and fears.
When carrying out activities on identity it is effective if you participate while you facilitate. If you are willing to share your own experiences the Guides are more likely to feel open and willing to share theirs.
Throughout your work on identity discuss labelling and stereotyping with the Guides. Could someone else do any of the activities for them without asking them? Would they like someone else to label them/choose their identity? Is it ok to label other people? What kind of effect could this have?

IDENTITY CIRCLES
Ask the Guides to draw a large circle in the middle of a page and five outer circles. Then ask them to draw a picture of themselves in the centre circle and to write about the different aspects of their identity in each of the outer circles, starting with information about their name.
