Another early settler attends the Century School House with "Miss Taylor"! Keva being in grade three meant a TUSC field trip with a covid twist - it was done virtually!

MOMENTS: Past Schooling with Present Technology
What is usually a full-day field trip has been modified to two separate online sessions. For the first session, I taught from my home office (aka: my bedroom) so had Keva join me in person and virtually at the same time!
The second day, Miss Taylor headed off to the Century School House and met her class of characters, including Keva Cosburn, virtually. Being 'mindful of her manners', Keva Cosburn told Miss Taylor of her chore (gathering 8 eggs carefully), correctly spelled 'sister', used the new vocabulary word appropriately in a sentence, and was sure to say "thank you, Ma'am" where appropriate. Excellent acting skills all around! The 1890s school days experience was further supplemented by a 'settler' style lunch for Keva too. Yum!
All in all, a great way to spend the day together ... a virtual throwback to early settler days here in Toronto!
