HISTORY TO GO!
Third and fourth grade students got a history lesson about Attleboro from Carleton Legg, Director of the Attleboro Area Industrial Museum (AAIM).
Mr. Legg presented “History to Go!”, a school-age program sponsored by the AAIM and the Attleboro Cultural Council.
Students got to hold Wampanoag Native American tools along with other local artifacts. They learned about how Metacomet, William Blackstone, Thomas Willet and Massasoit affected the early days of Attleboro history.
The students also had the opportunity to become “manufacturers” of their very own keychain souvenir.
Shown here is Mr. Legg helping Caroline DeMarco while Ella Nagle and Addison Collins wait their turn.
