How do we apply this to school?
1. Family tree/family history. The assignment was topped off with a writing prompt, “My place in history”
2. Field trip to senior citizen centers or nursing homes. Most of the time these kinds of trips have the kids entertaining the seniors with songs or plays; what if they do interviews instead? The compilation can be a book!

Please help me amplify this great project. It has two weeks to go and about 2000 dollars to raise. Help a community create the change they want to see. I have 17,000 followers multiplied by all your followers… we should be able to get 2000 dollars raised! If you can help with money, help by reblogging it.
Please share this great project!
