This week, Mrs. Jeanna’s 1st and 2nd-grade students enjoyed a variety of engaging activities focused on colonial times. The class explored the history of colonial trades and learned about the types of work people did during that era. To bring history to life, students made colonial toys such as button cups and whirligigs.
The hands-on experience continued as students participated in a bartering activity, trading their handmade toys with friends to simulate how goods were exchanged in colonial communities. They also had the opportunity to act as Silversmiths by crafting their own “silver” plates, giving them a glimpse into an important colonial trade.
The week concluded with a memorable field trip to Fallon’s Fox Peak Theatre, where the class watched the Angel Studios movie, “David.” The students were excited to see their favorite Bible story come alive on the big screen, especially since Mrs. Mitchell’s chapel sermon that week focused on David and his faithfulness.
