Question

Using the following words, write sentences that describe settlers traveling on the Oregon Trail. a. Manifest Destiny b. emigrant c. prairie schooner

Answer 1

Okay, President Monroe said that Americans need to fulfill their Manifest Destiny, which means that we should spread out across the whole country, so settlers were moving out west on the Oregon Trail to do this.  An emigrant is someone who moves from one place in a country to another place in the country, so pioneers were riding on prairie schooners (covered wagons) to travel across the country.
