Work in groups of three boys. Tell them they are getting ready for a trip across the Plains and need to equip their covered wagons. Give them a piece of paper and have them list items they think the pioneers would have taken. An alternative: they might make two lists - one for the 1800s time frame, and one with current day items which would have been nice to have. (Radio, road maps?)
