For our first collaborative project of the year, my 3rd and 6th grade students made pieces to contribute to a larger collaborative Peace Day Mosaic mural. The sixth graders had a busy morning, and made the frame/ outline of our mural, and also learned how to make paper cranes, a symbol of peace. Some sixth grade leaders swooped in to help their peers make cranes, showing the PAS core values of leadership, learning and collaboration! The third graders were prompted think of what peace looks like, sounds like and feels like, and wrote their thoughts on colored papers before continuing their art projects. The result is now brightening up our hallway, for students to read as they line up for class :)
