Students at Watkins Mill Elementary turned their school into a twirling, pinwheel-strewn art installation on Monday, each of them creating a handmade pinwheel and placing it alongside their peers’.
Art teacher Jaclyn Cross inspired the school’s 600-plus students to take part in the Pinwheels for Peace Project, an international movement in which millions of students pen peace-related poems or prose on one side of their pinwheel, then express those sentiments visually on the other side. Bad weather may have bumped WMES’s celebration off of Sept. 21—International Day of Peace—but it didn’t dampen their spirits on Monday.
