🌲🪵 Learning Beyond the Classroom! 🪵🌲
On Friday, September 25, our 1st–3rd graders had an amazing day exploring the PA Lumber Museum during Woodhick’s Day! Students rotated through a variety of hands-on stations, learning about Pennsylvania’s lumbering history and life in the logging camps.
They got to touch animal pelts, learn about the lumber industry, visit the blacksmith, explore the bunk house, mess hall and kitchen, see the train and ring the bell, learn about the lumber mill, and so much more! 🚂🔥🦌
What a wonderful day of hands-on learning, history, and fun! We are so thankful for the opportunity to learn about Pennsylvania’s past in such an engaging way! ❤️🌲
