We continued with our group testing..our group overall did pretty good..we got a B or B+ i'd say.

SETTLERS MEET THE CHALLENGES OF THE PLAINS

...frontier settlers had many things that made life difficult-droughts, floods, fires, blizzards, locust plagues, and occasional raids by outlaws and native americans

....people living west of mississippi went from 1% to 30% by the turn of the century.

DUGOUTS AND SODDIES

....the people built their homes from the land. like into sides of hills and ravines.

....they made sod houses,,they leaked when it rained and snakes and pests got in but it was fireproof

WOMENS WORK

.....women worked with men in fields..shaved sheep to make clothes, hauled water from wells, made soap and candles from tallow, canned fruit and veggies, doctors, made communities stronger
