Thoughts about peace

 

Fourth grade students discussed what peace means to them. They read "Peace" by Wendy Anderson Halperin and "The Golden Rule" by Ilene Cooper. To prepare their artwork, they drew a dove on a piece of sticker paper and then put it on their paper. Then they painted their entire paper with watercolor, trying 8 different watercolor techniques. At the next class, they wrote what peace means to them, around the outline of their dove. They chose a font to use for their statement, " I can be peaceful." and added more peaceful elements with oil pastel.
