SCORE Mathematics Standards Connections Math/Social Studies Activity - The Pony Express By: Rich McClelland Introduction: In the movement West, the Pony Express was a major influence in communications during its short life. Many students may be intrigued by the story of the Pony Express, and the following activities will help them discover a little about the route, and some of the problems they encountered. Prior Knowledge: Basic mathematics skills. Basic map reading skills. Grade Level: Task: The students will answer four math questions based on their reading of a short story on the history of the Pony Express. Resources: Pony Express History Blank outline map of the U.S. Alternate Internet site Process: Have the students go to the Internet site "The Pony Express" and read the information provided by the state of Utah. This should provide enough background on the unique system of communication for the students to do the following math problems. However, some students may wish to look in additional sources for more information, and one of the locations can be found in the alternate Internet site. Challenge the students to calculate the following problems: What was the maximum the rider was allowed to weigh? the supplies he could carry? and the mail that he could carry? How much was the total weight that horses were allowed to carry? (120lbs + 25lbs + 20lbs = 165lbs)

Social Studies Objectives: Analyze changes in the U.S. economy precipitating the westward movement To give a better understanding of the geographical region of the Great Basin while gaining an insight on what a trip like that might have been like. Notes Class will be divided into wagon families of 4 or 5. They must plan the route they will take from St. Louis, Missouri to either California, Washington, or Oregon. They must show rivers crossed, mountains, forests, etc. Each group will have a map showing their route. They must also determine what provisions will be necessary for the journey, what articles of furniture, clothes, and livestock will accompany the family. A list of these items will be made and each item must be justifiable when reporting their plans to the class. Students can find the measurements of a Conestoga wagon (roughly 4'x 10') and make a facsimile of the wagon on the floor by measuring it out and then pushing desks up to make walls of the wagon. This helps students to better visualize what space they had available. Each family then must report to the group what their plans are and get the approval of other families planning the same journey to join up with them. All of this will depend on if the group feels that the family is adequately prepared and would be able to survive without undue assistance from the group.
