Little Classroom On The Prairie

Introduction

Imagine yourself as a child living on the Prairie during the 1800's. We are going to travel back in time to the Kansas prairie. We will find out that we must grow or catch all of our food. There is no electricity or indoor plumbing. Our nearest neighbor is miles away. How will we survive as pioneers? What will it be like? What type of house would you live in with your family? What types of animals would you witness and encounter each day as you tried to survive off of the land? These questions and more will be considered and answered as you go through this WebQuest about a young girl and her family who moved to Kansas from Wisconsin in search of a better life. The girl's name was Laura Ingalls and whern she was older, she wrote many books about her life during these years.
