Invites You to
Explore the Past
The Haddam Historical Society is offering a new education program called
School Days for students ages 5-10 in the home school community. All the activities take place in the Thankful Arnold House in Haddam, once the home of Thankful and Joseph Arnold and their family, and now a museum portraying the 1820s period.
School Days
Students will step back in time 200 years and experience activities from a one room schoolhouse. Young scholars will learn to make their manners, write on a slate and with a quill pen, read aloud from an early textbook by Noah Webster, do their ciphering, and participate in a spelling bee.
The program is 2 hours in length, and there is a fee of $8 for each participant with a minimum of 8 (maximum group size is 16). Family discounts are available for 3 or more children. To learn more about the programs or to reserve a place for your child, contact Sarah Neal, Education Director at the Haddam Historical Society.
