Framework Cards

The card deck is the heart of the program, the key ‘ingredients’ that make a recipe. Each vibrant card offers a prompt or activity which invites teens to discuss, reflect, and exercise their emotional literacy. There are seven categories: Getting Started, Warm-ups, Topics, Co-Design activities, Tools and Materials, Opportunities and Constraints.
