Trolleys at the Shore
Posted by Maureen DialloFirst grade traveled along with PreK and TK to the Shoreline Trolley Museum for a morning of history and fun. The Shoreline Trolley Museum has the oldest continuously running suburban trolley line in the USA! As a preview to 1st grade’s upcoming unit in social studies called “Change Over Time,” the class made comparisons about transportation then and now as we rode along one and a half miles in the Shoreline’s vintage trolley car! Mr. Paul, the conductor, gave us a glimpse into what life was life traveling from one place to another. We also learned how the trolley car changed directions on the line without even turning around! Each student got to pick a pumpkin out of the festive Halloween trolley barn! Many thanks to the Shoreline Trolley Museum and to Ms. Palm for inviting us to come along!
