Spheres of Influence
When you’re planning your action, it’s easier to start with what you can do by yourself. Then, you might be able to influence how family to take action too, such as asking them to turn off the lights when they leave a room.
After that, with the support of your teacher and other adults in the school, you might be able to influence the school community. An example of this might be organizing the planing of a school garden.
