The fifth grade made the journey to Scranton, Pennsylvania to travel nearly 300 feet underground in a coal mine! In class we have been learning about human rights and the Industrial Revolution, and we made ties to the two events in the mine. We learned about the deplorable and unsafe conditions of coal mining, as well as how coal played a role in the development of the United States. The kids loved traveling underground to visit an important piece of American history!
