For part c) you need to plan a workshop for your team in regards to the following:

1) respect
2) democracy
3) honesty
4) integrity
5) justice
6) courage
7) inclusivity
8) social and cultural responsiveness
9) education

So for each above maybe you could do a scenario or find a video on youtube that shows each of the points above and ask questions at the end to your team about how they are currently implementing them throughout the day with children or through practice.

If you're doing the video idea this can help: http://www.watchknowlearn.org/Category. ... oryID=7817

This isn't the only option just one a sparingly came up with...

Hope this gives you an idea to get started,
