What they're saying about us
Thank you for interacting with our students in such a positive and motivating way.
--5th grade teacher
You truly brought history to life for me.
--Susan, 5th grader
My students remembered so many aspects of your living history lesson! They gained more from you in an hour than I could teach them in a week from the text.
--5th grade teacher
Thank you so much for enriching our students during our Civil War Day. Everyone was talking about how much fun they had and all that they learned.
--gifted resource teacher
The men talk about life during the times, how they existed in the army, and the equipment they displayed. Students loved it and the teachers want them back. This regiment practices safety techniques and the children were never in danger. We have had them here for three years in a row.
