Westward Expansion PowerPoint

A PowerPoint presentation that discussed Western Expansion. This includes topics that discuss manifest destiny, California and Klondike Gold Rush, the Transcontinental Railroad, Chinese Exclusion Act, The Homestead Act, and Life on the Great Plains.

I have a graphics organizer that goes with this PowerPoint on my page for student engagement. The yellow highlights on the PowerPoint is the material that I have my students write in the graphic organizer. This helps the students know exactly what material I feel that they need to focus on.
