Second grade paired up with their fifth grade buddies to create pinwheels for pinwheel for peace day. They colored, cut and assembled over 60 pinwheels that they placed in the grass in front of the school. They prayed for peace and discussed ways that they could encourage peace not only in their own school and community, but in their world as well. Many of them stated with such honesty and intensity that they believed that it was important for kids to be leaders for peace. I was so impressed by their want and desire to change the world. Hopefully they won't give up on such a lofty dream.
It was a beautiful sign of peace in 2nd and 5th grade! I loved helping my kiddos play a role in striving for peace.
