TAYLOR PARKS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL students travel back in time

Fifth-grade students at Taylor Parks Elementary School, teachers, and a few special guests had the opportunity to travel back in time to 1776 and get a realistic taste of what life was like during the Revolutionary War. 

Mrs. Sheila Lee, one of Taylor Parks awesome ATAs who  is a member of the 42nd Regiment of Foote, brought her group to enlighten the students, who have been going over the 13 colonies in class.

Grandma Jan Gibson spoke with students about 18th-century ladies and children activities.

Dalton Lee, Mrs. Lee's son, gave explanations to students regarding how things worked, including firing a period musket. 


Taylor Police officers who attended the demonstration eagerly joined in by giving the musket a try.
