 Pieces of Time Traveling Trunks

The Pieces of Time trunks are designed to bring history to you through interactive lesson plans, and reproduction objects.  Each trunk includes a manual filled with a variety of lesson plans, craft ideas, games, and learning activities.  Each trunk also includes a powerpoint presentation cd for use in the classroom. 

The reproduction objects in the trunks include everything from children’s colonial costumes, games, everyday objects, school tools, agricultural products, books, and much more!  These trunks will bring history to life for your students as they learn about the lives of early American planters, yeomen, and slaves.
