This Sand Art project derive from our Martin Luther King lesson. We shared with the children the importance of living your life with love and peace in your hearts. The children began to see how even they can make a difference in their community by learning how to use their words to compromise and get along because even though in life we may not all agree on everything, we can live in harmony with our neighbors, friends, and families.

    This was the foundation of our lesson and

fundraising projects. We explained that only one person would end up with each of their beautiful, cooperative art works, but we stressed that a lot of children, future VPC students were going to be blessed by their teamwork.
