Did you know first grade is doing a simulation called apple valley school? They are discovering what it was like to attend a one room school about 100 years ago. Each student has been given a new name, age and family history. They have been working on “challenge tasks” at home, such as building a diorama of a school room, writing in charcoal and interviewing someone in their 60s to learn more about life. We are going on a field trip to Ardenwood Farm this week!
