Discover South Dakota • Spring dates: January 2 – March 23, 2001 • The themes are: • Beginning the Journey “What do South Dakota facts tell us about the Diversity of our state.” • Continuing the Journey “Stories of South Dakota’s people and events…what do they reveal about why we are who we are?” • Sharing the Journey “If these places could talk, what would we learn about changes in South Dakota Communities.”

  6. On This Week in South Dakota History • March 3, 1904. It is said that President Roosevelt will refuse to sign the Rosebud bill unless the price of the land paid to the Indians is raised to $5.00 per acre. This would practically kill the effect of the bill, as few homesteaders would pay that price for the land when nearly as good land only a few miles farther north is already open for free homestead entry.

  7. Virtual Community Tour • Each class will research their town. They will put pictures and information about their community on the Discover South Dakota site so other students can learn about their town. Rockerville, South Dakota
