Kindergarteners learned important lessons in friendship by practicing collaboration and conflict resolution. They developed a school Peace Path that provides a step-by-step guide to solving problems with peers. They also completed the initial design stage of their buddy bench project, in which they will build a special seat that students can use to show others they are in need of a friend.
