Ninth and final

Here is the final "window", depicting these students' interpretations of our most recent history:

Artists' statement:

There were a lot of events in our decades that affect the United States of America: HIV, the Gulf War and Hurricane Katrina.  In these hard times people really had to work together as communities to make things better.

We must know the past to know what is right.  The Gulf War, Hurricane Katrina and HIV issues often overlooked children.  These stories make us wonder and learn and be curious.  If you are curious, you won’t make stereotypes and judgments and won’t discriminate against other people.

I look forward to turning my blogging attention to adventures with my own children over the coming summer weeks! I'll return in a week or so with new stories... 

Until then-- happy summer to you!
