Think about the following:&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the good things in your area? &lt;/strong&gt;E.g. parks, leisure centres, libraries, jobs &amp; employemnt opportunities, shopping, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What are the bad things in your area?&lt;/strong&gt; There aren't any good clubs, restaurants, bad public transport, high crime rates, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What sort of things would you like to see in your area?&lt;/strong&gt; More places for children, (what kind) more local shops, etc.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can we improve things ourselves?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Task:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt; in your group, make a list using the three headings. Compare your list with another group.&lt;/p&gt;
	&lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Project:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt; Use a camera to take photos of your area, or use the internet. Use the images to write a short report on your area on the computer.&lt;/p&gt;
