You have OREGON FEVER! On your voyage west, there are many things you must plan for if you plan to make it to your final destination. Choose one of the following to complete and submit to Mrs. Sterling through webmail for extra credit.

• You are concerned about weather. When is the best time of the year to travel (winter, spring, summer, fall)? Is the terrain easier to handle during dry seasons or rainy? How many miles must you travel? How many miles does your covered wagon travel each day? How many months will this take you?

• You want all the supplies and food that you can carry. What will you choose to bring along? What is necessary for survival? Remember: You only have a 5-by-10 foot area to carry supplies. List your supplies and draw a diagram showing how you will fit everything.

• You are always hungry. You want to create a menu for a week on the trail. You can only use ingredients that you can carry or find on your journey. Create 2 recipes (with measurements) for your menu.
You want to remember your journey forever. Create a journal entry detailing everything you see, experience, and come in contact with. Use historical facts.

Choose one of the three options. Follow its directions.

Sure! It seems like you have different options to choose from for your extra credit assignment. Let's break down each option to help you understand what you need to do for each one.

1. Option 1: Weather and travel planning
- The first part of this option is to determine the best time of the year to travel (winter, spring, summer, fall). You can research historical weather patterns in Oregon to find the most suitable season.
- Next, you need to consider whether the terrain is easier to handle during dry seasons or rainy seasons. Again, research about the geography of Oregon and how different weather conditions affect it.
- To calculate the total distance you'll need to travel, research the distance between your starting point and the destination in Oregon.
- Find information about how many miles a covered wagon typically travels in a day during the Oregon Trail era.
- Finally, you can calculate the approximate number of months it would take to complete the journey based on the distance traveled each day.

2. Option 2: Supplies and food planning
- In this option, you need to decide what supplies and food items are necessary for survival during the journey.
- Imagine you only have a limited space of 5-by-10 feet in your covered wagon. List all the essential supplies you think you would need, keeping in mind that they need to fit in that space.
- You can also create a diagram or drawing to visualize how you will pack and organize your supplies efficiently within the limited space.

3. Option 3: Menu planning
- If you choose this option, you need to create a menu for a week on the trail.
- Your menu should include recipes for two meals, with specific measurements for each ingredient.
- Remember, you can only use ingredients that you can carry or find during your journey.

4. Option 4: Journal entry
- This option focuses on creating a journal entry to document your journey.
- You should include details about what you see, experience, and come in contact with during your Oregon Trail journey.
- Use historical facts to make your journal entry accurate and informative.

Choose the option that interests you the most or aligns with your strengths. If you need more information or guidance about any specific part of the assignment, feel free to ask!
