Materials and Prep

• Blank paper or canvas
• Colorful markers, crayons, or colored pencils
• Optional: magazines or newspapers for collaging

No prior knowledge or preparation is required for this lesson.

Activities

1. Create an Affirmation Artwork:

Explain to the student that affirmations are positive statements that can help us attract what we want in life. Have them think of a positive affirmation, such as "I am creative" or "I am loved." Provide them with the materials and encourage them to write or draw their affirmation on the paper or canvas. They can use colors and images that make them feel happy and inspired.

2. Vision Board Collage:

Explain to the student that a vision board is a collage of images and words that represent their dreams and goals. Provide them with magazines or newspapers (if available) and ask them to cut out pictures or words that resonate with their desires. They can glue these onto the paper or canvas to create their own vision board collage.

3. Positive Word Art:

Encourage the student to think of positive words that they want to attract into their life, such as "joy," "peace," or "success." Have them write these words in big, bold letters on the paper or canvas, using different colors for each word. They can also add drawings or decorations around the words to make it visually appealing.
