Students in Family Studies have been working on our Flower Pots and Families project. They compared their similarities, decorated their own pots, then looked up family crisis statistics. When they read their statistic, they dropped their pot (in a bag) and broke it. Now they are working on looking up family crisis resources and putting their pot back together. It takes time and patience, and will never be exactly the same, but it can be put back together.
