We received the following quotes from a survey that students completed at the end of a LILYMI workshop.  The students who completed this survey were in grades 5 - 10.

They were asked to complete this sentence: "My favorite part of the workshop was...."

"The whole thing.  I learned and want to take care of myself."

“When we did door #1 and door #2 because it helps me make better choices.”

“Color the people and write my goals because when I grow up I want to achieve my goals.”

“Everything because it was cool!”

“When we got to hang up our pictures because that made me feel good about myself.”

“Earthquake Escape was my favorite. We had to work together. It felt good to get to the other side.”

"I learned that I need to think about how to do something first before jumping in to do it."

"Everything.  It was a lot of fun."

"The project planning.  It was interesting."

"Brainstorming.  It helps make the whole thing come together."

"Tying the rope because it was fun and tricky."

"The First Door Second Door game.  It showed me how stuff works."

"When we talked about other people's unique traits.  I got to learn how other people are different from me."

"About self-talk.  It helps you stay positive."
