Two Generations, One Lesson

Three short lessons for a grandparent and a grandchild: the elder teaches something they know, then the two of you teach a third person together, and you notice what the teaching taught you.

For grown-ups, from what HeritageQuest teaches children at Spark & Anvil.

  1. Lesson 1The elder teaches
  2. Lesson 2Teach a third person together
  3. Lesson 3What the teaching taught you
At the table · a grandparent, a grandchild, and one more learner

The two-teacher afternoon

You'll need: whatever the skill needs: a recipe and a kitchen, a deck of cards, needle and thread.

  1. The grandparent teaches the grandchild one thing they know well.
  2. The grandchild says it back, then tries it.
  3. Together, the two teach a third person: one shows, the other explains why.
  4. Each says one thing the teaching showed them.
