| Every holiday season, Mr. John visits our class to share his "Bird Tree" tradition (from his childhood) with us. Mr. John reads a book that Ms. Malcom made him a few years ago. The book is a true story about Mr. John as a boy. His grandfather took him into the woods every Christmas to pick out a tree. They would saw a branch off of a tree so that they would not kill the entire tree. Then, they would take it home, build a stand for it, and decorate it for Christmas. |
 |
| Mr. John brings tree branches screwed on to a base. He also brings lots of items and ornaments that we can use to decorate our trees! |
 |
| First, we decorate our base by painting it and adding dirt, rocks, and snow (cotton)! |
 |
| Then, we put on ornaments and artificial birds to decorate our tree! |
Our final products were so beautiful. The kiddos were so proud of their creations!
Thank you Mr. John for sharing this tradition with us each year!!!
