Colonial Confectionary

London's 5th Grade class is learning about Colonial Times. They were all assigned a certain career to research. They had to make a store front sign, write 1 page about what their job would have been, and do an oral presentation.

Of course the project was handed out before Christmas but we didn't get down to work on it till about 3 days ahead of time.

But I must say it turned out quite nicely. A friend of our, Allison Bowman, has a boy in 5th grade too. They'd made their sign out of wood and just painted it and she had some leftover. So we made this beautiful sign, wrote the 1 page (handwritten mind you, typed would have been MUCH longer), practiced out the Oral Presentation about 10 times, and even made some home made Caramels to hand out to his class. As a Confectioner is a Candy Maker after all.
He got 100%, way to go London!
