Camden Revolutionary War Park

     Today, we wrapped up with our Colonial Life unit of study and will shift our focus to the American Revolution next week.  Last week, we enjoyed a trip to Camden Revolutionary War Park and the great connection it has with the book we are currently reading in English/Language Arts, The Keeping Room.  Students were able to enjoy trying on Colonial clothing, learning more about the Battle of Camden, seeing the former home of Joseph Kershaw and they were also able to write with a quill pen, among other things.  It's always great when students are able to go on field studies that actually bring what we are studying to life.  Below are some pictures from our trip.
