Welcome to the Westward Ho! Wagontrain 

Our journey will begin on February 7th, 2011. Please review files and pages prior to the start of the trip.

I've included a link to the page I use to organize my pioneers if you'd like to take a look.

Other scouts have provided plans as well on the resource page.

Those who have are registered on this site, please access the participant page and add your school information so we can all get to know one another. This will also allow me to create a student account for our wiki for each of your rooms.

Thank you kindly,

Miss Darlene

Prior to the start of our journey please take time to read links for resources, lessons and overviews to help you get started. You need to log in to the wiki, fates and the chat sites to test them out before the trip. I will be assisting during chats on the trail, participating in the wiki and guiding my own group of pioneers. The resources hold many tips, ideas and answers to questions. I have also created a help page for scouts to share ideas and guide the tenderfoots as I cannot do it alone. Please go to the help page to post and/or answer questions.

Thank ya kindly,

Yore Wagonmisteress

This site will be used for additional online communication during the Westward Ho! simulation Journey of '11.

Registration will open in September for the '11 trip and close in early December.

Dear Pioneers and Scouts,

Load those wagons........kiss the kin goodbye.........get ready for adventure, drama, comedy, tragedy, and fantastic learning as we hit the Oregon Trail and head out west! Back for its fifteenth year, this simulated journey allows classes to travel the trail as part of the Westward HO! Wagon Train. In classrooms across the country, collaborative families, based on real families from America's past, make daily decisions (travel and fate scenarios are provided by the project moderators) that will influence their safe arrival in Oregon.

To all the brave souls that join us... Godspeed and safe traveling.

Yore Faithful Wagonmistress,

Darlene
