Education Days 2008 - Tweetsie's
"Learning Express"
Take your students on a trip back in time! Tweetsie's "Learning Express" provides a unique opportunity for teachers to make history, math & science both memorable and fun. For many years now, students have been able to study our historic steam locomotive and the importance of the East Tennessee & Western North Carolina Railroad (ET&WNC) in textbooks.
With the "Learning Express", students at all grade levels can do more than read about it - they can experience it first hand! The end result is a history, math and science lesson your students will never forget!
Purchase of an "Education Days" daily admission ticket gives you a full day of fun at Tweetsie Railroad including the opportunity to take a ride on our "Learning Express" Train, that pulls out of Main Street at 11:00 am and 1:00 pm daily.
Our 2008 "Education Days" will be offered the first four Fridays in May (May 2, 9, 16 & 23) and again every Friday after Labor Day through October 31 (September 5, 12, 19, 26, & October 3, 10, 17, 24 & 31).
