One-Room School Program September – October; November (Fridays only); April 15 – mid-June
SELF-GUIDED ACTIVITY
Reserve a day to conduct your own class in one of our two 19th-century schoolhouses. This learning experience encourages students to participate and imagine themselves as learners from the past. We also suggest other buildings in Greenfield Village to visit. Your students will understand how people took great steps in the name of education, whether that meant changing the school system or learning outside of a classroom. Teacher’s Guide provides historical background and pre-, post-, and during visit suggestions, links to historical artifacts, curriculum connections, and bibliography.
