Pioneer Hour Reflection






We had wonderful time sharing our Westward Expansion projects and work Monday! I am curious. What was your favorite activity that we did during this unit? Was is the journal, the iBook with widgets, QRcode with audio, reading Joshua and Hattie's journals, or brain tracking or viewing to learn with Little House on the Prairie? Please give a detailed explanation about what you liked or did not enjoy as much. Maybe you'll influence how we explore pioneer life next year!  Write four to five complete sentences. Check your punctuation.

  1. The pioneer unit was so much fun!!! I loved when we got to make butter on pioneer day it was so GOOD!!! I wish we had that every day. I learned that they trade and buy things along the trail. I would like to thank mrs.o,connell for all of her help. I LOVE PIONEER DAY!!!!

  2. Monday was really fun during pioneer hour! My favorite thing was when our moms and dads came and when I showed my mom all the things that I had done for the past 6 weeks. After that my mom told me that she learned a lot and I did to when I started learning about the pioneers. But we couldn't do it without Mrs.Oconnell. She is the best teacher ever!! Why? Because tomorrow we get to have a big party! We get to watch movie and you can bring pillows and blankets.

  3. I loved Hattie Cambell!!!!! It was so good and the realism was FANTASTIC!!! Once you start you can't stop reading!! It made me feel like i was experiencing every minute with her and i enjoyed it even in the dangerous parts! every sentence is a cliff hanger and even if you read it 10 times in a row everything is exiting and surprising!!!

  4. I really super enjoyed watching the movie (movies). I think I liked them so much is because when I was little, and when my mom was little, we both used to watch the TV series "Little House on the Prarie", starring Melissa Gilbert. Laura was Mom's idol!!!!! I have never seen this new version of this old classic until now. It has been a wonderful new experience.

  5. I very much enjoyed making the iBooks. The recording was with Vocaroo was also fun. The thing that I felt was confusing, was the books. Sometimes I got confused about people and if they were in Hattie Campbell, or Joshua's Journal. That's probably just me though. I'm very scatterbrained. Still, it was awesome.

  6. My favorite part was the iBook. I liked the widgets such as the photo gallery and test. I did not like journaling because I was behind. Although, I did like the whole Westward expansion unit.

  8. I enjoyed the journals because we got to write about someone who lives in Oregon. I also enjoyed Little House on the Prairie because it was funny and sad at the same time. I think this unit was really fun! The ibooks where so much fun too. I will miss this unit.

  9. My favorite part about the pioneer unit was making the butter. I liked it because you had to shake it super duper hard and it really let you fell what it was like to be a pioneer and it was really fun. My least favorite part probably was making the QR codes. Because I really don’t like speaking into microphones because I either speak to soft or I don’t speak clearly or I stutter. But I think I will love the fairy tale unit I can’t wait.

  11. What I liked was watching little house on prairie. But the book is a little better. Like mrs O'connell says ''some books are better than there movies.'' About pioneer hour, I liked everything the butter, the honey, the biscuits, beef jerky. But I was scared. All and all I had a great time

  12. I really loved doing the ibook. I also loved Little House on the Prairie even though it was a little scary with the Indians and the rivers. I didn't like doing the QR code that much because it was hard to be reading and sound like you were just talking. I really liked writing in my journal also. The butter was really salty and I liked it.

  16. Showing my dad all the things we have been working on in the past few months was really fun. I loved getting inspiration from Joshua's Journal and Hattie. Making our own journals was awesome in my mind. My dad was amazed of how we came up with all the days on the trail. Getting to do the iBook really taught me a lot and the Pioneer unit just might be the best so far.
