The purpose of Stone Soup is to bring people together to create something extraordinary. In the book Stone Soup, the characters are suppose to make soup out of stone, but in the process of making it, everyone add in something to make it better, in which the result was not a disappointment. We made our own stone soup just that it’s not actually soup, but we utilize the idea and use crafts and are materials to create an art piece. Everyone brought something from home to be used in the process of Stone Soup. Our group decided that we will make an abstract tree on a light pole. We start out with the trunk and continue to ad branches and design to make it look more abstract and unique from a regular tree.
Everyone working together
The branches were made from cardboard and rubber bike tires, while the leaves are bows and papers. What makes the abstract tree extraordinary was the small box covering the trunk of the tree. That gave us a new name and explanation of the tree. We called it the Tree out of the Box and when you look at the box it is very small and out of proportion for the huge tree. Our explanation for that is, something big and extraordinary can come out of something really small, presenting the idea of the quote, “Big things, comes in small packages.”

We were not the only ones who did a great job on ours, our colleagues and classmates we’re utilizing the idea of stone soup and created something great out of their materials as well. Everyone worked together and put their creativity on what they are working out, which all of our hard work was not disappointing.
An example of what another group made.
