In the role of an early English settler, she led Ellen Ruben\u2019s sixth-grade social studies students in songs and told them about life in the original 13 colonies as well as on the ships that brought the settlers. She appeared astonished that the students today did not wash their clothes in the river, didn\u2019t use a washboard or rock to loosen dirt and didn\u2019t make soap from animal fat. Mowing grass that she would have used to weave baskets was also a surprising difference in life today compared to the 1700s.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2155\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2155\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vbcpsblogs.com\/core\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/BaysideMiddle-Miss-Elizabeth-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2155\" alt=\"Cindy Aitken, in the role of Miss Elizabeth, shows students a writing implement.\u200b \" src=\"http:\/\/www.vbcpsblogs.com\/core\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/BaysideMiddle-Miss-Elizabeth-3.jpg\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.vbcpsblogs.com\/core\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/BaysideMiddle-Miss-Elizabeth-3.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.vbcpsblogs.com\/core\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/BaysideMiddle-Miss-Elizabeth-3-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2155\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cindy Aitken, in the role of Miss Elizabeth, shows students a writing implement.\u200b<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cindy Aitken, a former Bayside Middle teacher, returned to her old classroom at the end of the year as Miss Elizabeth of England.
