On the next day of our Spring Break we went into Oklahoma City and visited the Oklahoma History Center.
We took a virtual trip over Oklahoma City of the 1930's
We saw the various Oklahoma businesses displayed.
Sonic:
Dog tags from the Oklahoma citizens who fought in Vietnam.
The Civil Rights movement in Oklahoma:
How the World Wars effected Oklahoma.
This exhibit was of a WWI trench.
Looking through the periscope into "No Man's Land".
Byron and the kids even have a family member in the museum. Carrie Nation was part of Byron's mom's family. She was notorious for chopping up bars during the prohibition.
They were also able to go on stage for Oklahoma! the musical!
We also learned about the Oklahoma land rush.
There was so much to see in this center. I was so happy at the amount of history they covered. It went along perfectly with our area of study this year!!
