Fourth Grade Field Trip to Discover Pioneer Life at Filley Stone Barn and Homestead National Monument

As part of learning about Pioneers, Fourth grade got to spend the morning at Filley Stone Barn. The students were able to pick corn, shell corn, go on a wagon ride, saw logs, watch a marble being made, and watch a blacksmith.

In the afternoon, 4th graders traveled to the Homestead. There we were able to sew a quilt square, spin wool to make yarn, dip candles, learn about farm implements, make a cornhusk doll and learn how clothes were washed during the pioneer times. We had a great day!
