Within the space of a couple of weeks I got to work with two different facilitators I’ve always wanted to work with. In this group David Wetherow led a version of “the stone game” that I just keep reflecting on… it was really a wonderful thing to be part of. These are mostly just pictures of the stones with some of the conversation notes as they flowed past. I look forward to the next time I am part of this game, which you can read about a version of here.

I am currently half way through a Masters degree in Interdisciplinary studies, focusing on Equity and Adult Education, and particularly on how people with intellectual disabilities may be supported in participatory leadership groups.

Aaron,
I love how you captured this game and essence of the activity. Everyone should play it with the people around them at one point or another in their relationship.
The unspoken actions are the most interesting…
Thank you!
thanks Shirley – i’m working on a little movie using some of these photos; we’ll see where it goes.
