Our fourth grade students were able to travel back to the colonial times at the Historic St. Mary’s City! During this field trip, our students learned how goods were traded on ships. They were also able to board a ship and take a tour through it! Our students learned how to navigate their way without technology, but by using tools that were used in the colonial times. The students went inside the different types of houses people lived in and tried on different clothing that was worn to keep warm. The students also learned about the age that children began working and the importance of honesty when trading tobacco. Our fourth graders enjoyed learning about the colonial time during their field trip!.
