Conclusion
You have learned a TON about the life of a pioneer. You
know what chores (or work) a child your age would
complete.
You also know what games the children would play and
what the families would eat each night.
You are now ready to show what you know and teach
others about Pioneer life. On a white sheet of paper OR
using a word processing program like Microsoft Word,
write a diary entry pretending you are a child living in
Pioneer times.
Be sure to include all the things you've learned about the
way of life of people living in those times. Whoever reads
your diary entry should learn a bunch of interesting things
from you!
