Task 3 – Amplifying the Cause

A big part about Social Action Week is to work closely with your chosen charity and understand the work they do! As you start planning your team’s schedules for the week, think about the following questions:

1. How can my team amplify the cause that the charity is working for?

2. What are some ways we can share the work that they do? Example: Wear t-shirts of the charity, put up their posters, etc.

3. How is our project plan connected to the work that they do?

Task 4 – Team Roles

During Social Action Week, you will be working in a team with some of your other classmates. Look at some of the team roles below and see which role might play to your personal strengths. Think about who you could work well with.

Social Action Week is a fun and safe environment for you to practise teamwork and some of these skills.
