1800's Education


The 1800's was a time of change for the early settlers. Life appeared to be getting easier for them. Education was becoming important for the children. It would have been their ticket to a better life. Education consisted of Reading Writing and Arithmetic. The 3 R's, (Reading, Ritin and rithmatic) Older students would assist younger students and all would be in the same classroom. Write what you think a typical day would be like for you if you lived in the early 1800's. Include your school day and home duties.

I would wake up on my cot. I would eat my breakfast, and carry my books to school(if I had any). I would quickly begin any assignments I had. I would help the younger chidren with their work. We would eat our lunches, finish our assignments, and walk home. Once home, I would complete any homework, milk the cow, feed the animals and collect the chickens' eggs. I would eat my dinner, wash the dishes, wash up and go to bed.

I would wake up and get ready like any old day then I would walk to school and have a regular school day with homework and lunch. Then I would come home do work outside and clean and work around the house. My days would just go on the same,everyday.

I would wake up on my trundle bed and go do my morning chores ,like milking the cow, feeding the farm animals, and getting my own breakfast ready. Then i would wake up my dad to tell him to get the wagon ready to take me to school. I would do the work i had to do and help the other children with their work , too. Then we would eat our lunches and wait for my dad to pick us up. We would go home , do the chores, homework and whatever assignments that our mom has given us to do. I would then wash up and go to bed.

I would wake at 5:30 and help my mom make biscuts for my dad and brother. I would then pack a biscut and some butter for my "dinner" as they called it. I would have my lessons then go home and help my mom make dinner. We would eat then go to bed.
