Westward Expansion

We were leaning about Westward Expansion in class. Some of the topics our first test were the Transcontinental Railroad, the Gold Rush, Lewis and Clark’s Expedition, and the Louisiana Purchase. We did a project with different topics. My group consisted of Giselle, Sammy, Meena, and me. Our group was Pioneer Life.  All the other groups did board games relating to their projects. We wanted to do something different. We put on a play (About a girl who travels back in time to the 1800s. Three girls help her and teach her about Pioneer Life) and made a clay visual of a pioneer home. It turned out really well.
