BCR - CDP Lessons: Over Land on the Overland

Over Land on the Overland

The focus of the lesson is for third grade students to understand that many people came to Denver as pioneers and settlers, using many methods of transportation. The stagecoach and the various stagecoach routes going through Denver were an important factor in the building up of Denver as a major Western town. The students will be taking a field trip to Four Mile House, a former stage stop.
