Origami
Cranes
Springview Elementary School Students, Miami, Florida, USA
 "Our
peace project focused on the book Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes.
The importance and meaning beyond just making paper cranes was very
much grasped by all the children that were making the cranes.
It
was such a joy to receive the projects from our partners. My students
were very excited when the packages arrived and the projects are all
up for permanent display in our media center. My students felt the
expression of love coming through these projects and I know it is
an experience that they will never forget…both in giving and
receiving.
I
have enclosed some pictures of my students working on their cranes
and some of the final projects. I feel these pictures give a sense
of how much my students loved the process and inspired them to look
at the world beyond what they know.
Thank
you for giving my students and I the opportunity to engage in such
a thought provoking, loving and joyous experience."
