Abstract/Notes: The author believes that very young children are able to understand the abstract concept of peace. In her primary classroom she introduces the concept of peace to the children in a low energy environment with low lights, and soft music. When children feel at peace in their hearts, they relate peacefully to those around them. She begins with the dove, a concrete object and an internationally known symbol of peace. Children relate well to animals, and the dove, is a fragile bird. The children all sit together, and pass the dove around. Impressed with the way the children respond to the dove ceremony, and how respectful they are of the dove, the author has begun to extend this and has now incorporated the dove symbol into other areas of the classroom. She cut a dove shape out of sandpaper for a rubbing activity. She created a 1 to 10 dove counting game, and added doves to the big and little sorting lesson. The goal is for her students to expand this lesson of peace outside the classroom, into the world. She does this when introducing a new country by helping students see it through the eyes of a child who lives there. Through these "travels" students not only receive a geography lesson, as they discover the differences and similarities of students in other countries, but they get a life lesson as well.
