Do you think it was acceptable for the teachers to strike? Defend you answer.
Do you think the teachers deserved getting a raise similar to non-teachers? Defend your answer.
Do you think you have the courage to go on strike (meaning you don’t get paid) for something you believe you deserve? Explain your answer.
Regardless of how you just answered, if you were one of these teachers, would you help like they did or not in order to show how serious you were about the strike? Explain.
