The Giving Tree Story

In Shel Silverstein's classic story "The Giving Tree," a tree shares her gifts with unconditional love. In this companion worksheet, children reflect on the tree's gifts by labeling the parts of herself she gave to the boy. Designed for a second grade reading and writing curriculum, this activity encourages thoughtful reflection when reading storybooks, and reminds children to be attentive to the meaning of illustrations in fiction texts.
