Abstract:

Students will develop a personal lifeline which will include events from the past and present. Students will also be asked to think or dream about events in the future. Advise students that for this activity they can plan to live to be one hundred years old. They must include a minimum of five events from their past and seven events they see in their future.
This curriculum contains suggested activities to gradually move students toward a more futuristic and empathetic mind set. Students may discover that in many ways, their concerns and needs are similar to those of the aged -- feeling cared for and respected; having a sense of belonging, yet being independent; being treated fairly. The curriculum encourages and is greatly enhanced by student involvement in cross-generational relationships. The format allows for infusing "aging" into the established curriculum. It is designed to be used as interdisciplinary units. It affords teachers the freedom to adapt and enhance lessons according to subject matter, specific learner needs, and the community dynamics acting upon the attendance area served by the school.
