Here is the flyer announcing our activities
Our first activity was with our friends from Izmir, Turkey with whom we had a Skype chat about what the word PEACE means to us. Once again I would like to thank Miss Pinar Cetiner and her 7th grade students for participating and making our Skype activity a success.
After the Skype lesson, we went to the school yard to make origami cranes - as the Japanese legend says " the one who makes a thousand origami cranes will be granted one wish". We were close to making a 1000.
