Thanks for a GREAT day!

BOOK ORDERS DUE TOMORROW!!

What a successful day! Our class went to Orwell Corner Historic Village today and had a great time. I could not have asked for a better class to spend a beautiful fall day with. We arrived in the morning and had a tour of the town hall, schoolhouse, church, farm museum, general store and blacksmith shop. We asked many questions and learned all about what life was like in the late 1800's to early 1900's. The workers were excited to see that so many students dressed for the time period - way to go guys!! After eating a picnic lunch we made candles, took carriage rides and watched a blacksmith demonstration. I think we were all very excited by it all. However, the entire class (teacher included) was wiped by the time we got back to the school. Poor Gabby fell asleep on the bus!

I hope you all tell your parents what you have learned and the interesting things we saw today. Hopefully this is a trip you will remember for a lifetime. I bet Colby will remember it - she lost a tooth in her caramel apple sucker!

Can't wait to see you guys tomorrow. Thanks again for a wonderful day. I meant what I said - I am SO very proud of each one of you.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Craig
