Community Contributions Scenario Sort
A community is a group of people who share a place or work together. Read each scenario and decide whether it helps the community, may cause harm, or depends on how it is done. Some actions can fit more than one category: explain your reasons and consider who is affected.
Sort the scenarios
Use these three labels: HELPS — benefits people or a shared place; HARMS — is unsafe, unfair, or damages something shared; IT DEPENDS — could help or harm depending on consent, safety, or the way it is done.
1.A group organises a Saturday clean-up of a local creek and follows safe rubbish-handling advice. Choose the best label and explain one way the action could benefit others.
2.Kai leaves a bicycle across a neighbour’s driveway, making it difficult for them to get their car out. Choose a label and say who may be affected.
3.A student offers to teach an older neighbour how to use a video-call app. Choose a label and name one thing the student should check first.
4.A group wants to raise money for a new playground. They plan a fundraiser but do not ask local families what equipment would be useful. Is this clearly helpful, harmful, or does it depend? Explain your decision.
5.A volunteer takes photos of people at a community event and posts them online without asking. Choose a label and give a respectful next step.
6.Every community contribution must involve volunteering or donating money. True or false? Give one example to support your answer.
TrueFalse
7.Match each community action on the left with its most likely outcome on the right.
- Report a broken streetlight to the local council
- Leave litter beside a park bin
- Help at a community food pantry
- The shared park may become dirty or unsafe
- The council can check whether a repair is needed
- People can access practical support
8.A group wants to start a community vegetable garden. Name one way to include people who cannot easily bend, reach high beds, or attend every working bee.
9.Choose the action: helping a younger child practise reading. Complete the chain: action → immediate effect on one person → possible wider effect on the community.
10.Write one realistic way a young person could contribute to their community. Include who could benefit and one safety, permission, or fairness check.
