Lesson 1C Happiness Club

Over the last two weeks we have talked about Laughter Therapy. Here is an example of a Laughter Class (at the end of the recording the teachers speak in German, do not worry, you are not supposed to understand it)


Both groups will be required to create a Happiness Club taking into consideration the following points:
-a name for the club
-number of different rooms, areas or locations
-activities people can do in each space
-music, food, drink, furniture, decoration, etc
-any other ideas
You will work on this mini project in class and then one member of each group will write on the comments section a summary of their Happiness Club.
