Project Peace was launched in 2008. It asked teachers to make videos about peace with their students. Simple videos that would also help students learn English through songs about peace.
Students drew pictures and wrote out the song lines using the Peace Pack cards. They took pictures of the cards and put them together with the music to make a video. The videos were highlighted on EFL Classroom (once a community with 700,000 members, now rebranded as ELT Buzz and also the original Project Peace website. Videos were viewed 100,000s of times and a message of peace was spread.
Now we are re-launching Project Peace.
1. Make a class video. Your own creative project or use our Peace Packs.
2. Upload the video onto Youtube, Vimeo or other and notify us about it.
3. Your video will be added to the Project Peace site.
4. We’ll announce winners and prizes! Stay tuned!
Let’s give peace a chance! It is so important that we add peace as an important part of our school curriculum. Each and every year, for each and every child and student.
