Gratitude Tree Art Project
By Color Me Creative Art Room

Combine fall art with meaningful reflection in this Gratitude Tree Art Project for grades 3–6. Students create a mixed media tree inspired by things they are thankful for while exploring collage, texture, color, pattern, composition, and personal symbolism. The project gives students a structured seasonal theme while still allowing plenty of room for individual ideas, creative materials, and personal expression. Use it during a fall art unit, November lesson, gratitude activity, mixed media unit, collage lesson, or seasonal classroom display.
