Wagons West! Traveling the Oregon Trail
Conclusion
You have
been studying westward movement with a concentration on the Oregon Trail
through this project. If you were living in the 1850s, would you be
willing to travel 2000 miles on foot? Knowing what would lie ahead of you
through the Internet resources used and your brochure, poster, radio jingle, or
television commercial, do you think you could better prepare yourself and your
family for the unknown?
In
history we study people and events. Do you think the Oregon Trail was a
great influence on our American history? Would this event in history
make your top five events that shaped our country? (Consider the events we have
studied so far only.) In history we do see great advances, but we also
see the bad that comes with these great advances. Do you think you could
totally escape the bad if you read every brochure possible before you left for
this trip? If you could see into the future, and know the good and bad,
would you leave on this trip?
