They are
lightly studying it. They read the book 'Number the Stars'. That's it.
I know that my sons own teacher was not for it. But, he also has back problems and that combined with the whole out of town trip is too much.
Ya know, I think that for their age that perhaps a trip to Riley's Farm where it is early Americana would be more age appropriate.
I really think they want to 'break' these kids. I understand private schools may have studied this more indepth. We haven't.
Ugh, to see 'six hour bus ride' in print was a shock to my system.
