On This Land Online
A digital resource for 3rd Graders
On This Land Online is a digital resource designed to help third graders connect with Natick’s past. For over twenty years, the Natick Historical Society has welcomed third-graders from Natick Public Schools into our museum to learn about our local history. With On This Land Online, teachers and parents can extend that learning well beyond our annual field trip.
On This Land Online includes three learning modules. Each one explores different aspects of Natick’s history and addresses learning goals in the Massachusetts third grade curriculum. The modules feature two 5-7 minute videos, a corresponding worksheet, and a thematic coloring page. All elementary schoolers and their families are invited to enjoy these resources.
