3. The branches are details from your life, including: events, memories, favorite things, beliefs, important people, heritage. (examples: baptism, pizza, best friend, Irish)
4. The leaves are your hopes, dreams, and goals. (examples: go to college, have a business, have a family, travel, see a world with more equality)
2. Add color and symbols to your tree. (examples: cross, shamrock, basketball team logos)
3. Choose one thing from each category to share with the class.
