Role-playing pioneer students in an authentic one-room schoolhouse will transport your students back in time. Students will learn about schoolroom set up, subjects studied, discipline and school equipment, all within the walls of a real one-room schoolhouse.
As they practice their penmanship with pen and ink, attempt an early drawing lesson, and copy their arithmetic questions from blackboard to slate, students learn first-hand the challenges and enjoyments of one-room schoolhouses.
