What is an Action Plan?

Lesson 6

What does an Action Plan look like?

• What Tasks do we need to keep in mind?

• What Tools do we have at our disposal?

• We have an example from other Middle School students

• Video showing the students results

• What do you think is the difference between Direct and Indirect action when it comes to an Action Plan?

Brainstorm Your Idea

• You need to come up with 3 needs in your community that you are interesting in supporting

• Write a short paragraph for each

• Some things to answer• Why are you interested in this issue

• How can you help

• How can you bring awareness to this subject in your school/city/community?

Share your ideas

• Now, share your ideas with 3 others

• Talk about…• Feasibility (can you actually do it)?

• Is that a good choice for the needs of the community?

• How they will create awareness with it?

• Any advice you would give to them

Now that we have some ideas…

• Why Bother?

• What would happen if we do nothing for the causes we are passionate about?

• We need to be passionate about our ideas to be invested in it

• Make sure you pick a topic that you want to make a difference in

Proposal Time
