**Learners more than five minutes late to class will not be admitted and will have to watch the recording** In this class I will use a combination of Neapod VR, Canva presentation, digital archives and even videos to teach kids about the Oregon Trail. We will discuss the origins of the the Oregon Trail, various landmarks (Ayers Rock, Chimney Rock), learn what it was like to travel the trail through digital archives, virtual tour and learn about multiple stops on the trail (Independence, MO, Oregon City, Fort Laramie) The beginning of class will have a warm up question(s) that will gauge students previous knowledge.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of the Oregon Trail and it's importance.

Hi everyone! I’m Mrs. B! I have an BA in Public History, I currently work at a high school teaching AP US History! I have worked with kids of all backgrounds, ages, and abilities!
I offer a variety of different classes, and if you have a special class request in mind, please message me! My philosophy is that learning should be fun, engaging, and interactive! I am always looking into new ways to make an otherwise "boring" subject, fun!
When I am not teaching, you will find me either watching a Hallmark movie, exercising, reading a good book, or brain storming new class topics!
