Program Description
Moving to rural Ohio in the early 1800’s from Germany brought homesickness as well as a sense of hope and new beginnings. Zoar historians will share the development of the first successful communal living society as well as types of tools and affects that were used to build Zoar and maintain it. This program is developed as a writing activity – a letter home to Germany describing this new area of opportunity. Geared toward the 3rd grade level. During this session, the mailed packet will be explored, as students are walked through time as they describe what living is like in this new and untamed land.
