Today we started our next unit. We talked about the different groups of people who settled the west after the Civil War. We started class by answering the following question:

What different cultures exist in the United States today? Do they ever come into conflict? Give at least one example.

You should have a paragraph response to this prompt in your folder.

We then worked in groups to learn about:
Wild West Cowboys
Cattle Ranchers
Farmers
Railroad Workers
Alaskans
Miners
