Exploring a Century

Grade 6, 7, 8

This program looks at life in London and Middlesex County between 1820 and 1920, and examines how the museum uses buildings and artifacts to tell stories of the past. In the morning, students will join our educators for a mini tour in the Heritage Village to learn how people’s experiences varied during this time and the effects of colonialism on the region. In the afternoon they will participate in a series of stations that explore 19th century tools of the trade, technology and how home life changed over the century.
