- 1. So you’ve pickedyour project, now it’s time to make sure you know what you’re trying to achieve and how you’re going to do it. 1. At your school council meeting, ask everyone to imagine the project is finished and everything went perfectly. Ask them to describe what that success looks like and who it has affected. Make a list of all of these groups of people. 2. Split the group into pairs, giving each pair a group of people to consider. Ask them to fill out Worksheet 1. 3. When everyone has finished, get them all to report back to the group and work out what changes you really want your project to make (your aims). Write these in the bullseye of Worksheet 2a. 4. All together, work out what 6 ‘big things you need to happen’ to achive your aims. Write one at the tip of each segment of the target on Worksheet 2b. 5. Split the group into 6 teams and give each team one segment of the target. Ask each group to fill out their segment with all of the things they need to do (your actions) to make sure their ‘big thing’ happens. The more specific you are the better. 6. Put the whole target together and get everyone to talk through the bit they are in charge of. 7. Put your target up where the whole school can see it.
