Treat Others as You Wish to be Tree-ted! That was a Door Decoration Theme and since it is the motto of the 4th grade class, we decided to make it the reason for the season sentiment. :) The kids to collaborated in Morning Meeting to come up with the design. Small groups did different jobs from the few Gracie, Meredith, and Abby that put up the snow and sky paper, to Sophie who created the tree ornament template. Gabe and Claire put up the decorations. And, the tree is upcycled from Ms. Anne, our Tech Teacher, who was giving it away. I added the lights to it and the class picture. Anabelle made the star for the top with the message. Everyone made a wish from wanting the world to be more welcoming to simply wanting there to be more kindness. All the ideas that were shared are original and in the voice of each student. They did a wonderful job working together and this was done in about 45 minutes over 2 days. They are really learning to work well together. I am proud of their growth as a class.
