Elementary School fifth-graders learn about Colonial times
On Friday, March 18 2005, Mrs.
Nancy Taylor's fifth-grade class presented a walk-through tour
of Colonial times for other classes at the school. The tour included
a glimpse of six different aspects of life in Colonial Williamsburg:
the governor's palace, a shoemaker's shop and the Raleigh Tavern;
a church, William & Mary College, and slave quarters.
The students created their own
costumes and brought in props from home, such as wooden bowls.
Colonial food was also on display.
