Sturbridge Village in Pictures

Here are a few pictures from our recent class trip to Sturbridge Village! As you can see we had a great day! 

Baking cookies the way they did in the 1800s

Preparing the "receipt," which was what they called a recipe in the 1800s

Using a straw whisk to mix the eggs

The oven was very different from what we have at home!

Rotary Readers!

The second grade at Floral Street School was lucky enough to have community readers from the local Rotary International club come to our school yesterday! Each second grade class had a visit from a Rotary reader who read the class an award winning story. The reader also left our class with a gift of four award winning hardcover books! Our Rotary community reader was Mrs. Mills. We had a great time listening to the story Sleep Like a Tiger! Thank you, Mrs. Mills, for reading to our class yesterday!

We received these books from our Rotary reader!
