Listening to the Wall is a series dedicated to showcasing pieces of student art that helped create an incarnate of the Lennon Wall in my classroom.

Reconstructing the Lennon Wall
I just recently ran into the student who created this piece. While all grown up, her positive spirit remains firmly intact! Her idea of intertwining two hands has always struck me as beautiful.
This piece almost didn’t make to the wall! Water stains tried to smear the colors and pucker the paper, but luckily a little time pressed in a textbook saved it. This student created the earth using a very abstract style, but the message still comes through loud and clear.
Two students came together to create this piece. Look closely and you’ll see two hands instead of one. There’s nothing like a little unity to carry the message of peace.
