Service in Schools Libguide: Kids Action Team

Kids Action Team is a weekly youth service-learning program for students in grades K-3. During spring 2023, students participated in service-learning during an academic class or after-school club. They engaged in research, action, and reflection on one of the following service topics: animal welfare, elder care, or care for the environment. 

Students completed activities such as interviewing experts and analyzing engaging media to build background knowledge on the topic. Then they drafted components of an advocacy campaign and took an action in their school or local community. Students shared their learning and advocacy pieces with an authentic audience of peers, families, and educators at the Service in Schools Student Showcases throughout May and June 2023. You can view students' presentations and advocacy campaigns below.
