<h1>🐂 America Moves West</h1>
<h2>Week 28 • Monday • Westward Movement</h2>
<section class="lesson-section">
<h3>📖 Reading Time</h3>
<div class="reading-box">
<p>In the early 1800s, America was growing fast. Most people lived near the Atlantic Ocean in the east. But to the west lay huge lands with rich soil, tall forests, and wide rivers.</p>
<p>Families called <strong>pioneers</strong> packed up everything they owned and headed west. They hoped to find cheap land, build farms, and start new lives. Some searched for gold. Others wanted adventure.</p>
<p>The journey west was long and dangerous — there were no roads, cars, or stores along the way. But wave after wave of pioneers kept going, and little by little, the nation stretched from ocean to ocean. This week, you will travel west with them!</p>
