For part 1: Development - how and why
- Bring together maps and pictures of your city or settlement, past and present.
- Identify suitable areas to work on for group work.
- Investigate whether there are areas that are planned to be developed.

For part 2: Preparation of development plans
- Collect information about the area the group wants to work on. For example, newspaper reports, notes from council meetings, etc.
-If you plan to prepare the models using "trinkets", make sure that you have enough materials on hand. Start collecting small boxes, bottles, containers, cardboard tubes in toilet paper, etc. long before you start the activity.
