First, we went around the tables to discuss our "roses and thorns" of the day. This is a great, laid-back ice breaker at the start of our lessons. Next, we took turns reading about Hannah Brancato; a strong woman who designs memorial quilts to show how we can care for others.
After our reading, we discussed ideas of what is important to each of us and how to show respect for others. Everyone designed their own piece of our paper "quilt" to piece together at the end. It was wonderful to see the girls in our program depict issues that are important to them and the discussions sparked during this lesson.
Check out our finished project below!
Stay tuned for more adventures with Strong Women, Strong Girls!
