The American pioneers
The American pioneers | play_circle pause_circle |
A hundred years ago many people travelled across America. | play_circle pause_circle |
They needed houses and fields. | play_circle pause_circle |
They were pioneers. | play_circle pause_circle |

These people travelled across America first. | play_circle pause_circle |
They stopped near a river. | play_circle pause_circle |
They needed wood and water. | play_circle pause_circle |
They used axes and they chopped down trees. | play_circle pause_circle |
The horses pulled the logs with ropes. | play_circle pause_circle |
The men lifted one log on top of another log. | play_circle pause_circle |
These were the walls of their house. | play_circle pause_circle |
Inside there were two rooms. | play_circle pause_circle |
In one room there was a fire. | play_circle pause_circle |
The women cooked food in big pots. | play_circle pause_circle |
The children helped. | play_circle pause_circle |
They picked up wood for the fire. | play_circle pause_circle |
They fetched water from the river. | play_circle pause_circle |
There were not many toys. | play_circle pause_circle |
The girls skipped with a rope. | play_circle pause_circle |
The boys played skittles. | play_circle pause_circle |
All the children played a game with a cup and a ball. | play_circle pause_circle |
