Sully Plantation Field Trip: Gr. 2

Second graders had a great visit to Sully Historic Site last week! As a celebration of our Advanced Academic unit, Your Story My Story, students visited a nineteenth century home and learned that some things are similar to our lives today and many things are very different. After a tour of the home, we had an in-depth look at a kitchen, school room or textile workroom. All of us decided that life long ago could be hard work!
