Attendees to the North East Association of Trolley Organizations annual "Winterfest",held atthe Seashore Trolley Museum on March 16th ,were able to make prints from old Trolley parts. We used heat sensitive foam that was heated with aheat gun and pressed on the parts. Then the foam was pressed ontoan ink pad.
These were my favorite, created by a little girl. I gave her no directions or any prompt to make a trolley picture! I actually expected most folks to make abstact patterns. This tiny girl, who had been riding trolley's with her family all day, made trolleys! and all the choices were hers!
Coming UP --April 8th --I'll be at the Maine Council of the Social Studies Conference
in Augusta!
My booth will have examples of hands-on projects that can enhance understanding and open
conversations with children about history. One of my participants recently built this Conestoga
Wagon and told me what she was learning about the Westward Expansion!
