Learning about Boston Landmarks and the Printing Press with Mrs. Fritsche!

Each week, our classroom gets a visit from Mrs. Fritsche. She is a world traveler who knows a lot about the historical content that we study in fifth grade.  This week, she shared real photos of landmarks that we have been learning about in Boston such as the harbor where the Boston Massacre occurred and the Old North Church signaling Paul Revere's Midnight Ride.

 



Here, Mrs. Fritsche shows us how a printer's apprentice would learn how to sort all of the letters into the printer's tray.
