A Look in the Classroom

2 History: We will talk about the California gold rush and the famous Oregon Trail. We will also explore who the riders of the Pony Express were and learn how the technology of the telegraph replaced them.
3 Science: Scholars will begin to learn about the water cycle. Leaning on the discussions we had about states of matter last week, we will discuss what the water cycle is using key terms such as evaporation and condensation.
