Mrs. Tinberg's, Mrs. Streeter's, Mrs. Reynold's and Mrs. DeKeyser's students enjoyed looking through a traveling tote from the Kansas Historical Society in Topeka!

This was such a unique, hands-on learning experience and a fun way to enhance and wrap up their unit about Native Americans! #tongienation #usd464 #kansashistoricalsociety
