    Ryan and Jimmy and the Well That Brought Them Together

    $9.99

    It costs a lot of money to build a well in Africa — a lot more than Ryan Hreljac had thought. Still, the six year old kept doing chores around his parents’ house, even after he learned it could take him years to earn enough money. Then a friend of the family wrote an article in the local newspaper about Ryan’s wish to build a well to supply people with safe, clean water. Before long, ripples of goodwill began spreading. People started sending money to help pay for Ryan’s well. Ryan was interviewed on television. He appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, twice. His dream of a well became an international news story.

    $12.99

    WWII: Secret Agents in France is a captivating lesson which may be done in a single, or multiple lessons suitable for ages 8-12 but of interest for older students as well.  The Lite Membership that comes with this course offers curated related links including a first-hand video story of a Canadian airman shot down behind enemy lines in France, and rescued by the French Resistance.

    Students will be intrigued by the story of two Canadian secret agents who worked in France in WWII. They will then examine the Ethical Dimension of this story in history, along with Christian Critical Thinking – Is a lie always wrong? Of course, as in all my curriculum, I do the research for parents/teachers, and give you great sources for thinking/answering this question while leaving it up to parental convictions.

    A curated and reviewed audio story from a Canadian pilot who experienced help in enemy territory during WWII is valuable as a first-hand (primary source) account.
