Road of Trials (psychological development)

The fourth stage is built on the need for healthy Psychological Development, and allows students to look at their lives so far, to review their own Road of Trials. They examine the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and actions.

In the Challenge Activity, they determine what behaviors or habits from their childhood are no longer appropriate as they enter adolescence, and bring a symbol of a childish behavior they're ready to give up.
