Teachers were excited by the first- person connections about history that were made with their students, as well as the intergenerational component, children learned what it was like growing up seventy years ago, and the storytellers enjoyed passing on their life experiences to a younger generation.StorytellingIntergenerationalDramaOlder adultsConference paper
