Episode Synopsis "History Under Our Feet - Keeping it Real"

In this episode, we talk with Sandy Grabicki and Carrie LaSpada about reimagining their social studies curriculum. With their second graders, they are exploring what has transpired on Avon Mountain — from the Pleistocene Era through the Industrial Revolution — culminating with an exploration of Frederick Rentschler's home (now Renbrook), his contributions to the world of aeronautics, and a tea party!  We learn about the thought process behind the building of this curriculum, what has resonated with their students, and the partnerships they have built with other teachers at Renbrook and outside of it.
