Since our school is near a historic village, our fourth grade class gets to go on a field trip to an old one-room school and spend time pretending they were students long ago. They dress up as the students did, and write on slates, and practice writing with a quill pen. They have to bring their lunches in baskets. We all look forward to the time when we get a chance to go on this field trip.
