Pioneer Project

This week has been a slurry of action on the Hacker Trail. Wagon trains started out early this week and right away ran into trouble because they didn't bring enough water and firewood. Many delay points were accrued, and some groups lost Energy Factors.  Both EFs and delay points can hold the wagon trains back on the trail. But students worked hard on Diary Entry 1, family portraits and Trail Decision 1. Ask your child about what happened when their wagon train got to Prairie Wells, and which decision they made to get water and move along. 

 



Wagons made headway along the trail. Here is the map showing how far each wagon train has gone. Ask your child which train is their train, and how they did on the assignments to help their wagon train move forward, as well as discuss challenge projects they could do at home to help. (see Google Classroom for list).
