School was a lot different in the past. Let your class discover what life in school would be like if they lived in the 1800's. Starting with the ring of the school bell, this presentation shows how kids learned and how they were punished. Tip: Have learners write a comparative narrative, where they write what life is like in the 1800's and how different it is in the future after they traveled to the 21st century.
