Found near Grady Hospital
The Shaman Indians used Moqui Balls for their Shamanic healing
such as visioning journeys, meditation, and spiritual rituals to
contact their dead. In addition; moqui balls were originally used
for physical pain, emotional imbalance, and other healing
purposes. They are also uses for energy building, and general
balancing. For pain, you place the stones on the body part that is
hurting you.

Editor's Notes
We are here today to tell you about the program offerings we have for the elementary schools in Delaware County.
This slide changes for almost every presentation. It keeps growing! As people retire, we keep recruiting! We may have to add another slide, soon.
As retired teachers, when we started various projects that Susan assigned us, we were all amazed at the amount of primary source material available that did not seem to
Be used by local teachers. We started to discuss ways to get this information into the schools.
Now that we knew the vehicle, we had to decide what to include. I made copies of the State Social Studies standards for all the members and we went over
These standards with a fine tooth comb and decided 3rd grade was the best place to start.
We also included the Language Arts Common Core standards so that historical fiction and geography materials could be included. We really wanted to make this
A standards-based curriculum support so that schools and administrators would take the project seriously..
As we were doing some of the activities that we have done for years, I started to pull a few of those teachers aside and show them them the tote bags and
Explain the project. We knew we had to have a better way of communicating and getting the word out about the tote bag program.
That first year, we ran out of bags. We hurriedly made 2 more. The following summer we made 4 more. The program continues today and all the teachers who
Started with us are still with us. Diane will tell you a little more about the contents and bookkeeping a little later in this presentation.
As we looked through our files at the Historical Society, we decided to make folders based on the language of the standards.
We started xeroxing the contents of all the materials we found appropriate.
Inside the tote bag, we have folders, pamphlets, books and DVDs.
This included maps, newspaper articles, excerpts from books, archival photographs, journal entries and more.
These 2 videos are also included. We are very lucky that someone created these, not only for teachers to share with their students but to preserve our history and the stories that go along with them. I used pieces of these videos. I did not show the whole thing.
These Buckeye Valley East 3rd grade teachers are thrilled with their tote bag. I’m going to share with you how this tote bag was created and how the Curriculum Support Committee chose which items to include in it.
As Brent continues with the group on down the street he explains how the street used to be made from wooden bricks. A display of those unusual bricks can be seen at the
Historical Society Cryder Research Center.
The next stop deals with the history of a man named John P. Clum. He was born in 1851 in New York and became an Indian Agent and later the mayor of Tombstone, Arizona. He returned to Delaware and married Mary Dennison Ware, the niece of Ohio Governor William Dennison, on November 8, 1876.
. The couple moved to Arizona and after a few years they moved to Florence, AZ, and bought the newspaper, The Arizona Citizen. Two years later, in 1880, they sold the newspaper and moved on to Tombstone where he started The Tombstone Epitaph newspaper. He later became friends with the new sheriff, Wyatt Earp, and Clum went on to be elected Mayor of Tombstone. Clum lived through the infamous OK Corral shootout in October of 1881.
Turning the corner again, the group moves on to the steps of Willis Intermediate School. Willis has a long history and transformation. Starting as a high school and named after Frank B. Willis, a former senator and governor in Ohio and even a presidential candidate until his untimely death, Brent explained that this is the last year Willis will serve as a school with children. It will become offices and a part of Delaware City Schools in other capacities as it has a gym and auditorium. Brent points out the Sea Level marker on the front steps from the U.S. Geological Survey.
Just to wrap up – we are the Curriculum Support Committee. If you are interested in joining the Historical Society, we just started a new Teacher Membership status, for $15.00 a year. We have brochures to hand out today.
This is the group of teachers and the librarian at Buckeye Valley East. They had a special request 2 years ago. Their art teacher was working with kids to create a
Mural on the history of their town, Ashley. She asked me if we could create a special folder just on the history of Ashley. We spent several weeks putting this folder together
Which she used with her students.
And the mural in downtown Ashley was created. I took these pictures but it is a little hard to see the whole picture.
It is made of broken plates and mirrors and cups and whatnot. From left to right it tells the story of Ashley, Ohio,
With particular attention on the evolution of transportation. This little town has a railroad running smack down the
Center of town which is portrayed in the mural.
This is a close up of some of the tiles used in the mural.
