Sing for World Peace, Monday, Sept. 23 – 9:15 a.m.
As a member of an international Montessori community, you and your MPSA household can celebrate International Day of Peace by singing the beautifully simple song Light a Candle for Peace. Share your experience with our community on Twitter @MPSArlington #PeacefulMonarchs or your classroom’s Seesaw page.
Why Are We Singing?
By singing Light a Candle for Peace by Shelley Murley, we share and express a unified hope for World Peace with Montessori students around the world. Each international region has been assigned a time zone; by participating during the assigned time, our shared song will travel around the world and, eventually, resound for a full 24 hour day.
Watch the song travel around the world
