Evidence Write a Journal Entry
PROMPT
In A Pioneer Sampler, you read about the exciting lives of western pioneers in 1840.
These pioneers faced and overcame many challenges as they built their new lives.
Imagine that you are Willy Robertson. Write a journal entry from Willy’s point of view
that describes what happened on the day he saved the hay. What did you see? What
did you do? How did you feel about your experiences? Use descriptive, sensory
language to make your entry come to life. Be sure your journal entry retells details
from the text in sequence and explains the effect of your/Willy’s actions. Don’t forget
to use some of the Critical Vocabulary words in your writing.
PLAN
Make notes, from Willy’s point of view, about how you will describe saving
the hay. Include text evidence in your notes.
