Lesson Plan

The Gratitude Tree

Express gratitude through creative activity

In this lesson, students will create a 'Gratitude Tree' by writing things they are grateful for on paper leaves and assembling them into a tree display. This activity encourages students to focus on positive aspects of their lives, promoting mental well-being and fostering a sense of community in the classroom. By visually representing gratitude, students can shift their focus from stress to thankfulness, reinforcing positive thinking.
