I found this in a blog...

and thought it was appropriate:

Photobucket
"Wooden benches arranged in even rows, blackboard rags tied to the slates, and a slightly raised desk in front of the class - this is how a classroom looked during the Empire." Roscheiderhof Museum describes its recreation of a village classroom that dates from sometime around 1890.

The blog is about village life in 19th century Germany, and can be found here...it's an interesting read, I think. *celebrates relevancy*
