History comes to life in Mrs. Arner's classroom!🖋️📜
Our Tigers recently dove into history with hands-on activities inspired by Pilgrims and the Wampanoag:
-Quill Writing: Students made ink from berries, salt, and vinegar and wrote just like Pilgrims might have.
-Pictograph Sentences: On “rawhide” paper, they created stories inspired by the Wampanoag and their famous wampum beads.
-Butter Churning & Bread Baking: They churned butter by shaking cream in jars, then enjoyed it on fresh bread they baked together!
