4th Grade Class Program

Nathaniel and his dad strummed old-time tunes while Nathaniel's sister Sarah worked on a corn-husk doll as part of a living history day put on by the 1860s Civilian Society of Georgia at Hazel Grove Elementary School. Both of the school's 4th Grade classes sat together to watch the combined program, which also included a bit of dulcimer history and discussion about corn-husk doll making. Nathaniel's dad was surprised and encouraged by the a large number of questions from the class. The mother of one of the students commented that she thinks the boys especially enjoyed having a part of the program come from a boy who was about their age. Photo by Denise Weimer.
