"Students watch a video about the hardships faced by homesteaders in the Great Plains, and learn how homesteading was different in Iowa compared to other states. Then, they write a letter or journal entry about life as a homesteader in Iowa that answers the questions, &ldquo;What attracted your family to homesteading in Iowa?&rdquo; and &ldquo;What are the challenges?&rdquo;"
