Expedition Targets
Overarching Target: I can evaluate the signficance of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
Long Term Target 1: I can connect primary documents to important historical events.
Long Term Target 2: I can explain the causes, effects, and major events of the Lewis and Clark Expedition.
Since the last blog posting we have really gone deep into the nitty gritty of Lewis and Clark. As part of this, students drew and analyzed a section of the William Clark map. Each student evaluated a small section of the map and used that historical document to verify that the Corps of Discovery were in fact following Thomas Jefferson's orders.

We also had an expert from UI come and speak about how science fit
into the Lewis and Clark expedition. This was a very successful
experience, as Dr. Seward not only brought professional insight, but a
real-world perspective.
