  •  Observe the primary source image closely and silently for 30 seconds. 
  • Citation Notes: Life was difficult in the second half of the nineteenth century (1850-1899) in America. The average lifespan of a person in America in 1860 was only 39.4 years. (It is now 78.9 years). In the American West, that life expectancy was closer to 30 and much lower for women than for men. Life in the American West was hard, for sure. But what did it look like and feel like? Take a look.

    • Closed questions: can be answered with “yes” or “no” or with one word.

    What did you discover through this process?
      
    Through this process, I discovered that there are ranks and we could see that from the clothing, the house they were living in.

    How did you learn it?

    by studying the pictures 

    Has what you wanted to learn shifted after this lesson? How? 

    Meh not really
