Dear Third Graders,

In Social Studies, you have been learning about Pioneer Life and Westward Expansion.

Imagine you are moving across the country with your family. You are going to a deserted area, with no houses or stores. What items would you bring with
you? Why?

1. Wood to build a house for shelter and to make a fire for cooking
2. A gun to kill animals for food
3. Water because you would die if you didn't drink water in a few days.
