LET'S RIDE FOR
THE PONY EXPRESS!
WANTED -Young, skinny, wiry fellows not over eighteen. Must be expert riders, willing to risk death daily. Orphans preferred...Apply, Pony Express Stables, St. Joseph, Missouri"
Introduction The Pony Express employed the most courageous and adventurous young men and the strongest horses to transport the mail from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California-a distance of almost 2,000 miles. The 19 months that this exceptional service lasted (before it was replaced by the telegraph) represents one of the most thrilling eras of western United States history. Table of Contents
Introduction to the Unit
Student Outcomes Links to Lessons Children's Books ... Pre/Post Test Student Outcomes This unit was developed for Mrs. Shannon Steedley's 3rd grade class at Center Elementary; however, many of the lesson plans may be adapted to meet the needs of any grade level students. Through this unit the students will learn about the history of the Pony Express, as well as about some of its riders.

Grade level: 8-12 Overview
In this lesson students learn how Samuel Clemens Students put Clemens' life in the context of Westward expansion by creating a timeline which is then used to make deductions about how the West affected Twain, and how Twain's writing affected the ways in which the nation perceived and mythologized the West. As a whole class, students read three chapters of Roughing It In discussion and through writing assignments they focus on the ways in which Twain developed a distinctive Western voice, analyze how his persona functions in the telling of the tales, and scrutinize the tales for both the stereotypes and truths they reveal about a West which was vanishing even as Twain wrote about it. Then students break up into smaller groups, each assigned the task of reading and reporting on a chapter of Roughing It to the rest of the class. Students write creative pieces inspired by Twain as well as analytical essays about his work. Objectives

This "Newscast from the Past: Trails West" project will not only get them involved, but it will also strengthen their communication skills as they research Western emigrant trails to help their class produce a 20-25 minute videotaped newscast about the Santa Fe, Oregon, Califnornia, Mormon, or Pony Express trails. Highlights of the newscast project all for students to create news stories about the hisotry of the trail, uses of the trail, and life on the trail. Students are encouraged to use primaruy sources, such as the many diaries and journals that are available. To make the videotaped newscasts more interesting, the students will utilize costumes, props, and music from that time period. The format of the newscasts is left to each class.

About Us Academics Art Museum ... Educational Resource
Cochran, Eddie Eddie Cochran, the pioneering rock'n'roll songwriter, singer, and guitarist with the James Dean good looks, was a product of a Plains background, even though his place of birth remains disputed. Some rock references maintain that he was born in Oklahoma City; others have him coming into the world at Albert Lea, Minnesota. The date, October 3, 1938, is not in dispute. Nor is the fact that his parents moved from Oklahoma City to Albert Lea at some point during the 1930s. Cochran himself claimed Oklahoma City as his hometown, and the country and western music which his parents had absorbed in Oklahoma was a formative influence on the young musician. Eddie Cochran, despite this early death, had lasting impact on rock music. Many artists, including the Sex Pistols and, most famously, The Who, have recorded his songs. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987. David Wishart

Native Americans, trappers, traders, settlers, the Pony Express, and railroad construction will be some of the subjects illustrated in the close to fifty hand-colored lithographs and wood engravings featured in this display. Spanning the period 1835-1886, these images were created by prominent artists such as John J. Audubon, Albert Bierstadt, Karl Bodmer, George Catlin, and Frederic Remington. They offered 19th-century Americans their first views of the West. Today these prints provide a window on a frontier that has largely vanished. Two of the best known early artist-explorers to reach the Western frontier in the 1840s were Philadelphia-born artist George Catlin and Swiss artist Karl Bodmer. Thirteen of their memorable images showing the customs of various tribes of the Great Plains, as well as distinguished portraits of their chiefs, will be part of this display.

/RENO GAZETTE-JOURNAL Marilyn Newton/Reno Gazette-Journal ON THE TRAIL: Tales of the Pony Express, which carried mail from St. Joseph, Mo., to Sacramento in the early 1860s, have become part of Wild West lore. Here, a re-enactor rides the Pony Express trail through Fort Churchill. "Orphans Preferred" Pony Express home station Pony Express National Historic Trail Other news stories It was a charming American whopper that gathered steam. For 78 weeks in 1860 and 1861, young men on fast horses carried the U.S. mail from St. Joseph, Mo., to Sacramento in a grand experiment called the Pony Express. What we know about the riders and their adventures contains a lot of myth, some outright lies and some facts cloaked in the fog of nearly 150 years of history.
