Description: We drew a Tree of Life on a black piece of construction paper. The tree had many swirls that come off of the trunk that signify the branches. We then painted it with metallic paint, I used gold. After that was dried we had to cut out pieces of scrapbooking paper that represented each member of our family. The box with the butterflies on it represents my mom, the box with the fish on it represents my dad; I painted silver angel wings beside his box because he passed away nine years ago. The polka dot circle represents myself and the circle with the fish represents my twin sister, which why I made our circles the same size.
Extension Activity: For an extension activity I would have them make the tree and then instead of using scrapbook paper to represent each family member, they would cut our a picture of each of their faces and glue it on the tree. Then I would have them think of a personality or hobby that signifies each of their family member and have them think of a way that they would display that on the tree using any media.
