"A Smile is the Beginning of Peace"--Mother Teresa

We celebrate International Day of Peace next Tuesday. There's a special gathering around the flagpole first thing in the morning. I have put several links to the right for families to share and discuss. Each student will be making a dove with an olive branch in his beak and a peace message written on the body. This is a good chance to learn about various peace symbols and the IDP. Later this fall, the 2010 Nobel Peace Prize winner will be announced. See my links to learn more about the Nobel prizes.
