Beliefs and Traditions by Emma

Emma delivered an interesting account of beliefs and traditions. She brought Indian Pudding for us to try; she explained this was a common treat for special occasions. Her students were able to try out grinding corn using a large rock, so they could experience a taste of what cooking was like during colonial times. Great job, Emma!
