LEWIS AND CLARK
ASSIGNMENT

Congratulations!  You have been chosen to be a part of Capt. Meriwether Lewis and Lt. William Clark's expedition team. You will accompany Lewis and Clark across the wilderness and discover just what lies beyond the  central United States.  Upon your return, your team is to give a full report to President Thomas Jefferson of what you found on your journey.

Your mission on this journey is to discover the following information:
1.  Who accompanied Lewis and Clark on the expedition?
2.  What items did the team take?
3.  What path did the team follow?
4.  What landmarks did the team discover?
5.  Who did the team meet along the way?

 Use the links listed on the resource page to research your information.  Remember, there were no states in this territory at the time of the expedition.  In other words, do not state that they crossed Montana...it did not exist.
RESOURCE PAGE

Combine your information into a presentation fit for a president...President Jefferson, that is.  After all, he DID find the funds for your journey. He has even stated that he would like specific examples taken from journals.  Use as many visual aids as possible ~ you would hate to put the President to sleep!  Visual aids that could be used are a Power Point Presentation, maps, posters, videos, journal samples, or even pictures.
