The city of Charleston County’s Public Libraries located across various branches have announced an upcoming, interactive educational program designed for teens from grade 6 to 12. Named the Oregon Trail at the Library, it aims to replicate the historical journey taken by numerous pioneers in the 19th century, while simultaneously teaching basic budgeting skills.
This program is bringing back to life the classic game which has been popular among several generations. Participants will have to ‘cross wild rivers’, ‘find food’, and ‘evade illness’, all while maintaining a budget to ensure they don’t run out of funds before the supposed end of their journey. The focus here is on creating a real-life simulation that brings exciting historical experiences into the present day, teaching valuable lessons in an engaging way.
The program also aims at fostering teamwork, decision-making skills, and understanding of historical events as participants embark on this live-action adventure. The interactive nature of the program is structured to ensure an engaging and immersive historical learning experience.
The Oregon Trail at the Library will be held across multiple branches of the Charleston County Public Library. The first session will take place on Wednesday, April 10 from 3:30-4:30 p.m. at the Dorchester Road Library. The next session will be on Tuesday, April 23 from 4:30-5:30 p.m. at the Baxter-Patrick James Island Library. The final session will be on Monday, April 29 from 3-4 p.m. at the Dart Library.
For more details about this Oregon Trail adventure, individuals can connect with CCPL on their official website or through their dedicated phone lines for each branch. Participants are advised to adhere to any health and safety guidelines provided by the Charleston County Public Library during the live-action experience.
In conclusion, the Oregon Trail at the Library is more than just an event; it’s an interactive journey through history coupled with valuable life skills lessons. So grab your pioneer hats, Charleston teens, and get ready for a historical adventure that offers unique lessons and experiential learning.
