Rachel Kelm's second graders researched American pioneer life in the mid 1800's as a part of a Social Studies unit at River Heights Elementary. After visiting the Dunn County Historical Society the students used their learned historical facts to work in small groups to create dialog and develop characters. With the assistance of Kris Winter, the owner of the Paper Cow Theater, they also learned storytelling and drama skills.
