A Trip Back to the Olden Days!

For the past two weeks we've been learning about the olden days in class. So last Friday we walked down to our local museum to learn more about our local history.

Here we are ringing the school bell!

Our new teacher!

What school was like back in the olden days

teaching the "4th graders" while the other students study

Slates to practice math!

A tour through the caboose! 

Checking out the cabin. Cabin was one of our vocabulary words! 

Here we're learning about wells--how they work and their purpose. 

Next we headed to the blacksmith shop!

They made tools including horse shoes.

Finally we were able to check out arrows that were found in Ellsworth county. 

Thanks for the educational tour back to the olden days! We enjoyed it!!
