The students took a glass to school and they sat on a shelf and we filled them with water from the bucket when we needed a drink. We raised fingers during class to indicate whether we needed a drink, go to the outhouse, or speak to the teacher. I loved this little school and was scared to death when I had to go to a much bigger one in town after the country schools closed. Ah, memories. Have a nice weekend!

I taught in a one room school, but it has been divided into two rooms and, of course, it's just for children. It dates from the Victorian era and my daughter teaches there now. It can get noisy even with a small number of children. "Be seen and not heard" would have been the old motto, unless spoken to by the teacher. Love the teacher's desk. I wonder what the basket was for?
