Unit One: Roots
Arrow Purpose of Roots Activity:
To identify the important people who provide you with your foundation and then label them on your tree.
Arrow Activity:
As Dr. Jane discovered in her life, her family and friends continued to support her because she kept them involved in her life and let them know that she cared for them even though she was thousands of miles away in Africa. Click here to play video.
1. Make a list of all the people who support you. This list might include relatives, caregivers, friends, coaches, teachers, and neighbors. It could also include animals. Do you have a favorite piece of music, art, or poem, or a place in nature where you like to spend time? Add all of these to the roots of your tree.
2. Write a letter to someone on this list and let that person know that you are thinking of him or her and thank him or her for supporting you.
3. Create a calendar for important dates such as birthdays, anniversaries, and other celebrations of your supporters. This will help you remember these dates every year.
4. Send an E-Card to your supporters on those special days.
5. Read: Reason, Season, or Lifetime Friends and reflect on the relationships in your life.
6. Read Dr. Jane’s scrapbook about her childhood roots.
7. Complete journal entry.
