Our visit to the Ealy house

We have started our unit on Life Long Ago with a visit to the Ealy House here in New Albany. The Ealy house is one of the oldest dwellings in New Albany. The students had a chance to see what life was like in 1860. We used a machine to take kernels off of corn cobs, learned how clothing and material were produced, and saw some of the toys and games that children played with. It was a fun beginning to a great unit!
