Step back in time to 1918. What do I wear? What do I make for lunch? What is the school going to be like? How far do we walk to school? Twenty-four homeschool students had the opportunity to explore all tese things and more when they walked to school this past Tuesday morning in Wibaux, MT to the one-room schoolhouse. There, with the faces of President Washington and Lincoln gazing on the classroom, they began their day, pledging allegiance to the 48 star flag of the United States. Lessons in reading, writing, and arithmetic followed as they opened their 1837 McGuffey readers. Our older students presented reports throughout the day to help us understand what life was like in that era.
A special note to the parents:
It was with a grateful heart that we had the opportunity to work with students that had been so well taught at home to obey, be resourceful, show enthusiasm, and honor their teacher. What a pleasure to teach them!
Sincerely,
Miss Watson and Miss Sutton
