A new educational phenomenon is catching on in our schools: project based learning motivated by friendship.  Not just any friendship, but the kind where a student gets to know someone who is generations older than themselves, then studies about their life and the part in history that they played. GrandPals is one of a handful of new programs that facilitates this exciting form of relationship building and all the benefits that accompany it: educational, emotional, social and spiritual. See grandpals.ca for lots more about this program, including 4 more videos.
