Lewis and Clark Homeschool Unit Study and Lapbook – {1804 to 1806}

Studying about Lewis and Clark has been one of the best ways to study American History. Begin with this mission statement by Thomas Jefferson below.

The object of your mission is to explore the Missouri river & such principal stream of it, as, by it’s course and communication with the waters of the Pacific Ocean…may offer the most direct & practicable water communication across this continent for the purpose of commerce.

Words by President Thomas Jefferson, June, 1803.

There is probably no more famous words for explorers Lewis and Clark than those penned by President Thomas Jefferson.

This is how you get access to these pages quickly.
► 1) Sign up on my list.
► 2) Go to your inbox and confirm your email from the automatic reply I sent you.
►3) Look for the automatic reply giving you the password to the private subscriber’s area. You should have it soon.

Also, add in this fun and quick project from Home School in the Woods, one of my favorite hands-on providers.

The study of Lewis and Clark can have so many topics. You could easily replace any of these minibooks with the plants and animals fact books on the Westward Ho page.

The animals on the Westward Ho page are the same ones that Lewis and Clark “sketched” and wrote about. 

Also, add in some nature projects for your unit study. Look at these Think Outside Boxes which instills a love of the outdoors in children and provide them with knowledge and skills to improve their confidence and appreciation of the natural world. (From their site.)

                   

Flora and Fauna

When we covered Westward Ho as a co-op we covered more of the animals then that were “discovered” by the Corp of Discovery.

There were so many animals and plants we wanted to explore them with our co-op setting. So if you do this topic with a co-op, the animals and plants really lend themselves nice to a group setting.


If not, you can simply add a flap to this lapbook and add in the Louisiana Purchase on this page and the animals and plants on the Westward Ho page.

In addition, some of the girls in our co-op elevated Sacagawea to almost the “Leader” of the Corp of Discovery…LOL. So we added another matchbook minibook on Sacagawea that too can be substituted if they want to do research on her.
