What is a peacemaker?

The Grade 4 students thought about what it means to be a Peacemaker.
They brainstormed some of the characteristics of a Peacemaker.

A peacemaker is …..

kind, generous, a risk-taker, brave, happy, positive, respectful, brave, a thinker, principled, peaceful, skilled, humble, perseverant, believes in self, wise, calm, honest, caring, loving, empathic, good listener, smart, responsible, appreciative, courageous, confident, transparent, Inquirer, tolerant, communicator, trustworthy. enthusiastic.

They then looked at the list of words and found 3 or more characteristics that were accurate for them. They used these words when they created Wanted posters.

Here are some of the posters.













Tomorrow in our writing we will reflect on how having these characteristics helps us be a peacemaker and use real life examples to show how we resolve conflict and create peace.
