The 6th Grade Field Trip to Springfield was this week and they had a blast taking in all of the sights that they have been studying for the last few weeks! They went to the Lincoln home, museum and the Oak Ridge Cemetery where Lincoln was laid to rest. They studied Lincoln, Aesop's Fables, Sojourn Truth, Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad in ELA, and they studied the broad overview of the Civil War in History with Mrs. Myer.
