3rd+Term+Book+Week

The Children's Book Council of Australia has announced the 2012 BOOK WEEK theme:  "Champions Read". 

What does the word Champion mean to you? It can be "someone" famous, but do you think it can be "anyone" because "everyone" is good at something?

You can also **//Champion a Cause//**! What do you think this means?



Today we shall look at organizations that Champion Causes. With a partner, you will research as much information as you can about this organization and present your information as a poster. Questions to guide you:
 * 1) Where is the organization based?
 * 2) What is its logo?
 * 3) How old is it?
 * 4) How are they funded?
 * 5) What/who is their focus?
 * 6) Where do they work?
 * 7) What obstacles do they encounter?
 * 8) How do they make a difference?
 * 9) Can they change the world?

You will also ask the big question: How can I make a difference knowing what I now know? If you have time, you may want to present your work in a digital format.
