"Hello, My name is Miss Clark, I am the new teacher at the settlement near your village. I am here at the trading post getting provisions for my cabin. It's nice to see you here with your father, I'm sure you're a lot of help to your family. Since I'm new to your area, could you share what life is like for children here on the plains? If I give you a journal, could you please describe a week in your life so I can share what your life is like with my students? You can bring it to me at the school house whenever you are finished."

 

Miss Clark gives you a small journal and a pencil. It is an honor to be trusted with such an important request! You want to share just what your life is like with children your age who lead very different lives than your own. Now that you have your new journal, the first thing you need to write is your name:
