At Brookfield Elementary, a group of 4th and 5th grade students from Upward Roots were concerned that children their age were not being nice to each other unless they were already friends. They observed that some kids were teasing others based on their appearance, which is known as body shaming. This motivated them to take action. They designed T-shirts with positive messages about bodies and organized drawing and writing activities to promote body positivity at two other schools.
