3 DAY Session 7:<br />
Mental Health First Aid – Part Four<br />
Session Objective : To educate CHWs about Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) so that they are<br />
able to use this framework to respond to people experiencing mental<br />
disorders in their communities.<br />
Session duration : 2 hours<br />
Activity 16 : Revision of Day 2<br />
Time : 30 minutes<br />
Purpose : To revise the in<strong>for</strong>mation presented on Day 2.<br />
Materials : Quiz questions and some small prizes such as sweets or lollies.<br />
Directions : Step 1<br />
Divide the group into Quiz Teams (about 4-5 people in each team).<br />
Ask the quiz questions below, one at a time.<br />
For each single question, the group decides what the best answer is and<br />
writes it on a piece of paper.<br />
For each single question, the facilitator asks one group <strong>for</strong> their answer,<br />
and if it is correct gives all group members of that group a small prize e.g.<br />
lollies. If the first group’s answer is incorrect, then the facilitator asks the<br />
second group and so on.<br />
This is a fun and energising way to revise the previous days learning and<br />
begin the current day.<br />
