Peace Day!

On Monday we will celebrate Peace Day!

Peace is like a giant cake-- you need lots of ingredients to create it.


What would you put into a Peace Cake?



--respect---love---kindness--friendship--hope--

We are going to add our own ingredient:  empathy!

Empathy is understanding how someone feels and sharing their emotions.

 We are going to take an empathy pledge.

 I'm sure you know the peace symbol:

But did you know that there is also an empathy symbol?

Let's add lots of empathy to our cake of peace!

 Remember to wear a white shirt on Monday (you do not need to wear a chef's hat!)
You can practice our song, "Sonrisas"

Buscamos sonrisas!

Busco sonrisas que no lleven prisas,
que sean de verdad con credibilidad,
que salgan de dentro.
Busco ese gesto,
en peligro de extinción.
Yo quiero sonrisas
que llenen esta canción.

Busco en las caras de todos esa gran sonrisa,
ojos que brillen llenos de emoción.

Busco sonrisas para enamorarnos,
para sentirnos vivos,
para ilusionarnos.
Busco sonrisas,
dame una sonrisa. (x2)

Busco sonrisas que no sean postizas,
busco afinidad,
esa complicidad después de ese momento.
Busco ese gesto lleno de satisfacción,
yo quiero sonrisas que salgan de corazón.

Busco en las caras de todos esa gran sonrisa,
ojos que brillen llenos de emoción.

Busco sonrisas para enamorarnos,
para sentirnos vivos,
para ilusionarnos.
Busco sonrisas,
dame una sonrisa.(x2)

Busco sonrisas.
Busco sonrisas.

(Sonrisas, sonrisas, sonrisas)

Regalame una sonrisa,
(sonrisas)
solo quiero sonrisas,
busco sonrisas,
busco sonrisas.

Busco sonrisas para enamorarnos,
para sentirnos vivos,
para ilusionarnos.
Busco sonrisas,
dame una sonrisa.(x2)

Busco sonrisas,
busco sonrisas,
busco sonrisas.
