The fourth
grade investigated Lewis and Clark's expedition across the northwest
by reading, visiting websites, watching videos, and
traveling to the Academy of Natural Sciences to tour the Lewis and Clark
Bicentennial Exhibit.
As a culminating project, each child was assigned a "leg" of the
voyage, based on the National Geographic website: nationalgeographic.com/lewisandclark/journey
The children wrote their own journal entries and drew pictures of discoveries
and observations. The writings were then turned into a PowerPoint presentation.
Below are examples of the project.
