Trust exercises

This is an ongoing theme as our class learns to work with each other in a mature and resposbile manner. Sometimes it can be hard to let go. Do you earn trust or give it?

I found the trust excecises easy to do. i found it easy to trust the people around me. it was although somtimes annoying when other people didnt trust you, but that was fine. the people around me did earn my trust especially on the one where we had to get picked up onto the people and tha made it feel like you were on a river. this one was harder for me because i dont really liked to be picked up by anyone, but i did it and the people didnt drop me, and it was also fun.

I think the trust exercises were quite helpful in building the trust of our class. I think that the trust that you have between people you don't know is greater than peple you do. For example I think i would trust some people more than my friends with physical trust.I know that because we're friends we might joke around, but with people that aren't my friends, they would probably be much more serious. I've chosen Drama as my M4/5 art subject, and i know that i'm the only one in my class that's chosen it. I think the trust I have between the other class will be much greater and i'm looking forward to it.

The trust exercises that we did in class were a lot of fun and it was in some ways challenging and others easy. It was difficult to be able to trust someone with your eyes blindfolded. It was also difficult to trust other pairs to be able to keep control of their partner and not crash in to anyone. However once you start getting used to your partner, you find it easier to trust them and you perform more confidently.

Trust exercises

the first game was the blind car game.
We did it to see if we trust people that we don’t really know. I don’t really know Yusif or Riad so it was hard for me to trust them but I did, sort of. At first Yusif said that he could do both of us at the same time but very quickly this ‘idea’ faded and he lead us one at a time. I doubted that he could lead us both and I was right to but when he led me alone I was very trusting. It was a little scary but i got over it quickly. The symbols were confusing and I don’t know if I did the right movement at the right time.

the scond game was the falling game.
My group was: me Shelby and Andra. We had to fall or catch the falling person depending on who is in the middle. I found it hard to fall because it is silly to make yourself fall, without protecting yourself. My group was good and I under trusted them. But Shelby over trusted us she fell every three seconds and fast. It was scary and funny at the same time.

i would do it again anyday!

Last lesson we were doing the trust exercise, our aim was not to let the person in the middle fall. My partners were Barbora and Yusif. At first me and Barbora are looking for Yusif. We did not let him fall, but at some point, it was hard to look after him because of him falling so unexpectedly, that even me and Barbora did not understand what was going with him… By dong this, we made Yusif trust us… However, I didn’t trust my partners at all, I fell 2 times during this exercise…

I liked trust exercises. I found easy to trust other people. Sometimes I was afraid that I can trash into someone. I am glad that I didn't. I felt that other people trusted me to. I the exercise where we had to fell on the ground I trusted people a lot at the beginning. But after few unhappy tries... I didn't trust them as well as at the beginning maybe I was falling too fast... It was a bit hard for me to catch falling people at the beginning. But later I get used to it and everything went fine. I liked trust exercises.
