Lesson Plan
Weaving Friendship Plan
Second graders will create a shared friendship web by naming positive traits of classmates and weaving yarn connections—grounded in a read-aloud of The Invisible String to emphasize our unseen bonds.
Reading The Invisible String links literature to our yarn web, reinforcing that friendship and belonging connect us—even when we’re apart.
