Children Learn What Grandparents Teach
()
About this ebook
It is the intention of this book to recapture some of the ‘pearls of wisdom’ that some grandparents have shared with their children and communities.
Although the focus is on Fifth Graders, Children Learn What Grandparents Teach can prove interesting and adaptable also for students in the Fourth and Sixth Grades.
The book has the potential to be a valuable gift to grandparents, children, relatives, teachers, and friends. However, it also has a high potential to be the basis for school activities, lively conversations and sharing of experiences, applications to current and past events, as well as a guide for recalling and exploring several more idioms.
Mavis Aldridge Ph.D.
Mavis Aldridge grew up in rural Jamaica, West Indies, where intergenerational relationships were part of her growth process. In her mature years, she began to deeply appreciate and recognize the value of that aspect of her life after migrating to the United States, where for many years she was separated from relatives. She is an author, retired educator and administrator, whose teaching career spanned grades from Kindergarten to College. One highlight of her experiences relates to the numerous rich and memorable moments she spent with children in the elementary grades. As a result, she always had a fervent desire to write a book dedicated to children and the grandparents who influenced them in many ways. Dr. Aldridge hopes that the book will serve as a catalyst for much sharing and reunions among children, relatives, and friends. She is happy and proud that she has finally fulfilled her long held desire to use this book as the medium for celebrating the innate genius of the children of the world.
