First Grade: Learning to be Peacemakers

In first grade, Mrs. Bryant is proud of how her students are learning to be peacemakers. “We always start the year in Bible class learning about biblical peacemaking – but this is a subject that is easier learned about in theory than put into practice!” she says. “I was very proud recently when two of the girls were having a problem with each other, but instead of coming to me and pointing fingers at the other one, they worked it out constructively on the playground and came to me after to tell how they had figured out their differences.”
