If I Were a Tree is a creative writing and drawing prompt that invites students to imagine life from a tree’s point of view. Would they sway in the wind, shelter birds, or complain about squirrels running all over them? This two-part activity encourages imagination, empathy for nature, and a few chuckles along the way. Students will write a short piece describing what kind of tree they’d be and what their “tree life” would look like. Then, they’ll draw their leafy alter ego! It’s thoughtful, silly, and makes for a great Earth Day classroom display that’s full of personality (and bark jokes). Ways to Use It: Earth Day writing center or whole class activity Morning work or early finisher option Creative bulletin board display Paired with tree- or nature-themed read-alouds Why Teachers Love It: Encourages creativity while building writing skills Easy to prep, just print and go Combines art and writing for a fun, balanced task Sparks meaningful conversations about nature Works for a variety of elementary grade levels Let your students go out on a limb, creatively! 🌳 Pdf file includes 2 pages.
