What You Should Know: For the field trip, each student has been assigned the "role" of an actual child who attended Seneca Schoolhouse. The students will act as that child for the entire day, including dressing like the child, and responding to the child’s name. Everyone has been given a biography of the child they will "act" that day. Each student will need to know his or her "role" as that child and be able to tell their teacher, Miss Darby, about themselves.

 

What You Can Wear: To enhance our time warp back to the colonial period, Seneca Schoolhouse suggests that the students dress up as colonial children. Children are invited to dress up if they would like, however, this is not something we want you to spend time or money on. Click here for examples and ideas of how to dress as a colonial child.

This will be a fun, educational and unforgettable field trip! We look forward to passing along great pictures of your colonial kiddos!
