PLANNING!!!!

Today we are planning your "Be The Change" projects.
Choose AT LEAST 4 of the following.(This might be different if you are part of a two- or three- person group.)
Volunteering
Street theater
Direct action or demonstration
Letters to important people
Videos
buttons/stickers
social media (like Facebook)
PROPOSE your strategy and your plan, with deadlines, to your group.
PROPOSE your plan to me and Kemar, via email, by 3:00 PM on Saturday, 11/5. Copy your group members on the email.
The proposal should outline the big deadlines, like "upload the video" or "send the letters"; the little things on the way, like "edit the video," are for you and your group, not for Kemar and me. As a reminder, our email addresses are
kemarbennett at hotmail dot com
profpoole at gmail dot com.
Your confirmed proposal is binding. If you need to move a deadline you must re-propose it and get it confirmed by Kemar and me.
Collect your work in a portfolio on 12/9!
PRESENT your work on 12/16
SEND your finished portfolio to me by 12/19, no exceptions! Note: no speeches on 12/2; we need another work day.
