What a fun (and cold!) day! We went to Naper Settlement in Naperville, IL. Here's the link if you want to learn more: http://www.napersettlement.org
I have pictures and I will work on uploading those this weekend. We did decide that we would have a new set of class rules:
1. Obey thy elders.
2. Speak only when spoken to.
3. Idleness is sinful.
4. Busy hands maketh a quiet mouth.
5. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.
6. Stand thy body tall to recite.
7. Hold thy tongue when others speak.
8. Honor thy father and mother.
9. Be thankful for life's blessings.
10. Children should be seen and not heard.
Just kidding...but those were the classroom rules in 1893 at the one room schoolhouse we visted.
Grier was our child of the day, but since we were gone, she will be child of the day again tomorrow and will read a book to the class.
We have P.E. and Music tomorrow. Be sure and wear gym shoes or have a pair here to wear.
