On Thursday and Friday of this week, we watched an episode from the popular series, "America: The Story of Us" from the History Channel. Students will be required to answer discussion questions based on the video. This episode is entitled "Heartland" and it will concentrate on the development of the Transcontinental Railroad and the settlement of the American West. The discussion questions are attached below. We also worked on a chart describing the problems faced by Great Plains settlers. I've attached it below as well.
