The Festival of Trees- Arts Alive 6th grade


We have been asked to represent our school by producing a tree for the Festival of Trees this coming Saturday. Students in the 6th grade arts alive classes are working together to create a book theme. They are looking up their favorite childrens books on the internet, and copying the covers of these books onto book ornaments. Inside they are letting the reader know why they think this book is great!
They will also be making bookmarks for the tree, decorated with marbled papers and splatter paints. We are looking for donations of childrens books to add to the tree itself, or to place under it. We will be adding a gift certificate to a local bookstore as the centerpoint of the tree.
See you at the festival on Saturday!
