The One Room Schoolhouse | Life on the Webster Farm: Work Days

August 10 – The One Room Schoolhouse

Come and experience what school was like for Noah Webster and his classmates in the 1770s. Visitors will write with quill & ink, use slates to practice lessons, and read from Noah’s famous “Blue Back Speller” and horn books! Also, find out what games students would play at recess… come and find out!

Visit the museum on select Saturdays from 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. and enjoy live demonstrations from our experienced team of museum educators. Each demonstration will focus on a unique aspect of early American work and play. Stop by and learn about the trades and activities of life on the Webster farm!

This program is included in museum admission. Enjoy FREE general admission for children under 12 for this event!

August’s Work Day will focus on the one room schoolhouse! For more information, please email events@noahwebsterhouse.org.
