For this weeks assignment, we're supposed to bring in an object that means something to us which we will later send off to Ghana. I've decided to bring in a key on a string, (to make a necklace type thing.) I chose a key because I'm a very curious person and want the key to represent opening doors and learning new things about the world and eachother. It's the key to a different world filled with new people. I've always really liked keys and i think they make really neat necklaces. I hope that by the end this project, there will be a kid on the other side of the world wearing the key I sent around her neck.
Peace Offering:
I want to take this oppurtunity that the Children Inspiring Hope organization has given us and use it not only to get to know students and teenagers like us in Ghana, but to begin practicing peace between cultures. How cool would it be for our different countries and contenents to all get along? I think the only way to find out is by taking the small steps, like this, to start. Students from Atlanta communicating with student from Ghana might not be seen as a big leap globally, but in the long run, we're setting the tone for how the world could, and should, be in the future.
