Roots and Fruits

Resources:

None. (A picture of a tree displayed may be helpful.)

What to do:

When asking students to plan, ask them to complete this activity called roots and fruits. 

I have used this many times; for example, my students have used this activity when planning an active campaign/project. I have also used this when looking at an arguments/characters/economies/countries etc. 

The students should draw out a tree. In the different sections of the tree they should write the following…


  • Roots– 

E.G:

  • what are the core problems
  • what are the reasons
  • what is restricting your project
  • what is holding you back
  • who has caused problems before

  • Bark– 

E.G:

  • what is your problem/issue you want to change
  • who/what is your main target
  • what is the main thing you should do
  • name of your character


  • Branches– 

E.G:

  • who can help/decision makers
  • what arguments are there
  • where could your project go
  • family/links to the character


  • Fruits– 

E.G:

  • what would a good outcome look like
  • what is the result of a successful outcome- link fruit to the specific branch?
  • how have relationships developed and with who
  • Campaigning methods

Variations:


Idea adapted from P. Pattison.
