Welcome to Colonial Williamsburg

Our fifth graders had the opportunity to experience life as a colonist in the 1700s through some exciting interactive activities.  Through role-playing activities, songs and games, our students were immersed in a colonial simulation. The students were transported to Colonial Williamsburg, which helped them to better understand how the colonists lived and what they may have done each day. The students were excited to participate in these early colonial experiences!
