IDS 2nd Graders Visit the Connecticut River Museum & Open House Invite

The IDS 2nd Grade recently visited the Connecticut River Museum in Essex, Connecticut to learn about the Connecticut River Valley. The second-graders discovered how the river and the surrounding valley developed, how communities were established along its banks, and how the human relationship with the Connecticut River has evolved over time. During the visit, the children "built" community representations on a 6 x 20 foot map of the Connecticut River. The students will use this experience in the classroom to launch an exciting new learning unit where they will relate the development of the Connecticut River Valley to the development of the communities of Middletown, Middlefield and Durham.
