Updates: 4/29/13 & 4/30/13

Yesterday in class (4/29/13) and today (4/30/13) we worked on our Oregon Trail projects which are virtual games that can teach people about Westward Expansion. We were permitted to bring our laptops or tablets to work on them, this was really helpful considering the projects are due Thursday. While working on our projects there was a movie playing in the background. The movie is called "Red River" and is about a cowboy. We were asked to write/talk about the life of a real cowboy and the ones in the movie. I think the cowboys in the movie are highly exaggerated in terms of violence compared to real cowboys.
