Reflections on Pioneer Hour


We had wonderful time sharing our Westward Expansion projects and work today! I am curious. What was your favorite activity that we did during this unit? Was is the journal, QRcode with audio, reading Joshua and Hattie's journals, the treasure chest, making butter or brain tracking?
Please give a detailed explanation about what you liked most. Maybe you'll influence how we explore pioneer life next year!  Write five to six complete sentences. Check your punctuation.  Have fun!!!

  9. My favorite activity was making the journals. I liked the journals because the Oregon Trail was not easy so when we were writing the journals. There was a lot of action. My parents loved The QR code. They like the QR code because I used my accent. The jerky was so good.

  11. I loved everything about pioneer day! I loved making butter, writing our journal, our family, our I Book and our presentation! I mostly loved our treasure chests, because they were so fun to make and create! I don't want to end pioneers for as long as i live! My mothers aunt, and my mother came to visit pioneer hour! I love taking brain tracks and all the fun learning! Everything was so intresing! I liked doing a journal with Sam and making funny parts and sad moments in our journal. I also liked sharing our Native Americans again! It is so cool that it is now published as a official website for the Kinkaid students! i liked the biscuits, beef jerkey, butter and fresh ice cold water! I loved when everyone dressed up on pioneer day! I wore suspenders, dark jeans and a blue pioneer/cowboy shirt. It was nice to see what other people made and wore to pioneer day. If i look in my pioneer journal i can see how much research I did and information tooken from books.
    I wish we could have had pioneers for the rest of the year! I also liked playing the board game named "The Oregon trail." Pioneers were awesome thats all i have to say!

  14. Pioneer day was so much fun! I loved showing my parents what we worked on during our unit. (Also the biscuits and beef jerky were really good).My favorite part about preparing for pioneer day was making butter and our iBook. Making the butter was fun because it was exciting to race against other tables to make it. Writing our iBook was fun because once we were finished our personal page, we could work on a subject with one of our friends. Another thing I liked about our iBook was we could add some widgets like quizzes and art/picture galleries. I also liked that we could pretend to be a pioneer and write in a journal on the Oregon Trail. We got to make up our own name, and we could include other people in our class in our journals. I loved journaling because we could write anything we want. The list goes on and on. I guess it would be easier to just say I loved the whole thing.

  15. I think doing the journals was the most fun! I think making the butter would have been fun too! I think the journals were the most fun because we get to write as if we were a pioneer. Then showing all our work to our parents was fun! I think doing the pioneer project was really fun!

  17. My favorite thing about pioneer studying was journaling and making the butter . The biscuits and the butter was so good! I like how we got to dress up but when we played street hockey it was so hot. It was fun reading my journal to my parents . I wish we had pioneer day every month.

  18. One of my favorite things was getting to make the butter with are whole table. It was so fun getting to teach are moms and dads what steps we had to go threw to make the i book. I was so happy when we finished are pioneer journal. we had to go threw so mush planning to get to finally get to teaching are parents all about the pioneers. My favorite food was the jerky because it had all of those spices. One of my things in the i book was Indians. I wonder how my sister rote her journal in cursive.
