SCIENCE AND SOCIAL STUDIES: CKLA Listen and Learn Domain 10: Colonial Times
We will discuss how in colonial times, most of the things needed for survival were made at home. We will also talk about how farmers could visit towns to get some of the things they needed more easily. Your child is going to be learning about a variety of tradespeople who worked in larger colonial towns, including millers, bakers, spinners, weavers, dressmakers, tailors, hatters, and cobblers. Your child will also be comparing the work of colonial tradespeople to the work of tradespeople today.
