Please watch the videos below to see how the kids portrayed the diverse peoples of the west who were participated in or were impacted in someway by westward expansion in the 1800's. This year we decided to portray the different groups of people through student-scripted talk shows based on information they read about each group. Aside from a few minor inaccuracies, the talk shows are pretty great! The kids had fun with them and seemed to really enjoy learning about westward expansion! You may have to turn up your sound though because my recording device does not pick up sound well from the distance I have to stand to capture them all in the video. Enjoy!
