3^rd Grade

1.  Wilmington 1898 has been part of the Tar Heels Go Walking tour for the last ten years.  Students learn about this tragic event at the old John A. Taylor Home, which in 1898 served as the Wilmington Armory and the place the organized violence first began.  Students also visit the 1898 Memorial. 
2. To supplement the 1898 experience, a historical fiction account has been created to help students understand what happened in the city.  The resource is open to all elementary students…but is aimed at third grade to coincide with the Tar Heels Go Walking field trip.

8^th Grade

1. We have specifically placed the unit of Wilmington 1898 in the 8^th grade NHCS Curriculum Map.

High School
