The students are traveling west on the Oregon Trail. They will observe and write about the things they see on their journey, tell about their duties, and how they passed the time while on the Oregon trail.

Teacher Introduction

This webquest allows the students to become active participants or pioneers on the Oregon Trail.  They will learn what life was like in the 1800s when families decided to move west to build a better life for themselves.
