4th Grade Trip to MO Town

We traveled back in time to a MO town in 1855.  We learned about how to be a blacksmith and what life was like back then.  We toured many buildings including a church, tavern, and school.  We met some animals: a horse named Dusty, roaming sheep, stinky pigs, and some shy chickens. 

The students quickly learned to watch where they took a step. ;)

The students playing with some toys from the 1850's.  This toy helped teach young children how to milk a cow.  

These were two of the stinkiest pigs we have ever been around!

One of the settlers taught the students how to use two types of saws.
