Home. This web site is brought to you by teachers Michael Trinklein and Steven Boettcher, creators of The Oregon Trail, the award-winning documentary film which aired nationally on PBS.
During the three years we spent researching the film, we found lots of great material we thought would be great for teachers and home schoolers--so we built this this site to make it all available. Enjoy the adventure! Copyright c. 2012 by Boettcher+Trinklein Inc. The Oregon Trail. The Oregon Trail Imagine walking for 2,000 miles — barefoot.
That is what many children did as they traveled the Oregon Trail in the 1800s. Being a pioneer was not easy. The weak did not survive. But those who were strong and determined had an incredible adventure. Worksheets - American West. THe western frontier. A Unit Study on the Oregon Trail.
