Kar2ouche Moving On has been designed specifically to address the practical and emotional issues that children face during their move from Primary to Secondary school. The activities are aimed mainly at Year 6 students, although there are some designed for Year 7 as well as activities that encourage communication between the two years.
The ideas and issues, discussion and role-play activities are based directly on needs identified during extensive research, and address issues such as making new friends, coping with change, and asking for help. They allow students to rehearse situations, anticipate events that might arise and plan how to make best use of their time and resources. By using the computer and virtual role-play, students can deal with situations, ask questions and challenge assumptions safely and in a way that avoids embarrassment and prepares individuals for transition.
