Tree Day Activity – Dynamic Tree of Dream.

Objective: Reflect on the importance of each individual having goals, dreams, projects and trying to make them happen.

Material: 1/2 sheet of legal paper and pen.

Procedure:

• Distribute half the sheet of legal paper to each student.
• Ask them to draw a tree with roots shown, similar to the figure on the right. It is common for students to say that they do not know how to draw, so show your drawing, but if you are a draftsman, try to simplify it.
• Now request the following:

On the treetop: write a dream, a wish, a goal or a life project you want to achieve.

A good number of students will say they don't know what to write. This happens because many people do not have a vision of the future, do not project something for their lives. But don't be discouraged! Start giving examples: pass the entrance exam, buy your own house, participate in a course, buy an object, pass a competition, etc.

Beside the roots: write what it is based on.

You can make the following indications: firm in God, in His Word, support from family and friends, in the ability that God gives to study and perform actions, or in perseverance, high self-esteem, etc.

On the trunk of the tree: write some actions to realize what was dreamed, projected.

• Now read with the students: “For which one of you, wanting to build a tower, does not sit down first to do the accounts of the expenses, to see if he has something to finish it?”. Lk 14.28
