Colonial Day 2010 PDF Print E-mail

Colonial day is a multifaceted project. Students start out by researching, through text and online resources, a colonial trade/craft that interested them. The actual Colonial Day event consisted of each fourth graded student taking their new knowledge (research) of their colonial trade/craft and creating a type of living history presentation for parents/teachers and other visitors to our colonial "villages".

A special thank you to the many wonderful parents who gave their time and energy into making the Library Art Show a success.

On Wednesday evening, at the Mary Riley Styles Library, the families of the TJ community came out to support the artists and chorus members at a special event. Refreshments were provided by the Library, Marie Harbison and the TJ Chorus gave an outstanding Chorus performance, and Juls Rathje and the TJ Artists presented their masterpieces - the evening was a great success!

Again, thank you to the Library for allowing us the opportunity to exhibit our work and to the parents and families for coming out to support the art and music programs at TJ.
