The Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum held a “Student Author Book Signing Event” to celebrate the top Hunt Elementary Student Authors from the first writing contest on April 9. Fourth and fifth graders wrote first-person journal entries as if they were on a cattle drive in the 1800s. This writing project was part of an engaging social studies program that included a field trip to the Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum to learn about the great cattle drives and life in the 19th century. The students selected had the most creative and well-written entries.
The entries were compiled into a booklet titled “Beeves, Brands & Biscuits- Adventures on the Trail with Hunt Elementary.' Below are a couple of stories written by the students.
