Our 2nd-grade students traveled back in time…and experienced life in the 1800s during an unforgettable field trip to 1880 Town!
Through an exciting scavenger hunt, they explored historic homes, old-timey establishments, and vintage transportation– from antique showers to typewriters, getting a real feel for life back then. One highlight? sitting in a real old-fashioned classroom and imagining what school was like more than a century ago. A live-action shootout reenactment of a bank robbery brought the Wild West to life, making the students feel like they were truly part of the town.
The kids later created their own lively pretend play– complete with good guys, bad guys, and even a brave Sheriff Colt who made sure the town stayed safe.
Inspired by the adventure, the kids let their imaginations run wild and, as one of the students put it, had the “time of their lives”
A heartfelt thank you to our amazing parent chaperones for helping make this day safe, fun, and unforgettable- we couldn’t have done it without you!
On May 7, the 2/3 Mac Classroom visited Chadron State Park. During their trip, students even caught a fish.
