Plymouth Plantation Presents...


Baylee’s cottage fair was today, celebrating their study of Plymouth Plantation. Baylee really enjoyed learning about the early settlers, their hardships, journey, and community building process with hard work, courage, and perseverance. Mrs. Runyon had the kids perform a play in front of the parents today, each having special speaking parts. Baylee was a Native American with many friends, the other classmate friends were pilgrims. Everyone did spectacular!

I videoed the classes’ production. Now I need to know how to transfer it online (I know I need some sort of program). If I get a “Christmas wish”, you’ll see this story updated in about a week so you can hear Baylee’s phenomenal job presenting her speaking part, loud and clear!

Baylee (and class family) you ALL did an EXCELLENT job! Thank you Mrs. Runyon for your patience and fun way of teaching. We appreciate and love you!

And to Taylor Finlayson...thank you for sharing your Native American costume with us. I know it's precious to you. Thank you for trusting Baylee with it and being interested in what she was learning. What a very sweet girl you are!
