Lesson Plan
Gratitude Garden Plan
Students will express gratitude by creating a decorative ‘flower’ for each thing they’re thankful for, then assemble a collective ‘Gratitude Garden’ and reflect on positive aspects of their lives.
Cultivating gratitude improves emotional well-being, fosters a positive classroom culture, and helps students focus on the good around them.
