September 21 our class celebrated Peace One Day. A day of cease fire and non-violence. Our class read about Peace One Day and brainstormed how we could make a difference in the world. We decided to practice peace by embarking on a journey to build a positive habit of gratitude. Our Gratitude Journal was a place to write what we are grateful for and any random act of kindness we witnessed and partook in. This month on October 21 we will be connecting with the founder of Peace One Day Jeremy Gilley via Skype. After watching his documentary A Day After Peace (below) students are brainstorming how we can grow our sense of peace by working as a classroom community and give back to the world.
