Lewis+and+Clark+Project

**Introduction** Grizzly bears? Rattlesnakes? Treacherous water falls? Indians? Are you ready for adventure? Are you brave enough to explore the unknown? One thing's for sure, you'll need plenty of courage and [|stamina] ! This is no backyard camping trip! You are about to join Captain Meriwether Lewis and William Clark and the Corps of Discovery on a journey to the unexplored West. President Thomas Jefferson has directed you to explore the land west of the Mississippi River with the goal of finding a waterway that would connect to the Pacific Ocean, and opening up trade to the West.



=
Your job will be to form a team of four or five specialists that will work together to report back to President Jefferson about the discoveries you've made, and [|chronicle] the journey for future generations to come. Each team member will have a job to do, but you will need to work together to collect information and survive the trip. Will you be the Map Maker? the Model Designer? the Journalist? the Inventory Technician? or the Native American Ambassador? Are you ready for danger and adventure? =====

**The Process** Follow each of the steps below __in__ __order__. You will be guided through the journey with a series of instructions and links to expedition experts. Be sure to keep track of your journey and discoveries through notes and illustrations. You may want to use //Inspiration// to help organize your information.

You will need to create a team of 4-5 specialists for this expedition. Each member will work on a different task for the team, so you will need to include individuals who are good at specific skills. (Your teacher may have some good ideas about how to choose team members that will work cooperatively together, and allow each member to have a job that matches his or her talents and skills!)
 * STEP 1**:

|| ||

Next, decide who will become the specialist for each task.
 * **STEP 2**:

**Map Maker** The Map Maker is a good artist and is good at copying an image or picture on paper. Drawing is a natural talent of the Map Maker, and creating detailed pictures neatly and creatively is a plus!




 * Invent****ory Specialist** The Inventory Specialist is good at writing short descriptions of things, and good at sketching new objects. He or she needs to be very organized, because the Inventory Specialist will have to keep track of the new discoveries found on the trip. ||

**Journalist** The Journalist is a good writer, and someone who enjoys writing. Since he or she will be writing about the journey, the Journalist should be someone who can create a sense of excitement in the journal entries, specifically emphasizing "voice". Another important skill would be note-taking. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p204230328_2132.jpg?sc_id=1086275218 width="115" height="94" align="left" caption="p204230328_2132.jpg" link="http://hilton.ny.schoolwebpages.com/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2334&timestamp=1070557238"]]

**Model Maker** The Model Maker is also a good artist, but he or she likes to work with 3 dimensional materials, like clay, wood, fabric, or wire. The Model Maker is also good at recreating miniature copies of actual places, objects, or creatures. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p199061824_2134.jpg?sc_id=1086275218 width="106" height="91" align="left" caption="p199061824_2134.jpg" link="http://hilton.ny.schoolwebpages.com/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2331&timestamp=1070557274"]]

**Native American Ambassador** The Native American Ambassador is a great "people person!" He or she knows the right way to communicate with people from different cultures, and is interested in finding out how people from other cultures live. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p207999066_2135.jpg?sc_id=1086275218 width="108" height="106" align="left" caption="p207999066_2135.jpg" link="http://hilton.ny.schoolwebpages.com/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2333&timestamp=1070557382v"]]

// Note: If you only have 4 members on the team, you can eliminate one of the specialists, but be sure to have a Journalist and a Map Maker! //



**STEP 3**: Your job is to collect data of the journey with as much detail as possible. At then end of the journey, you will need to present your findings to a highly educated committee organized by President Jefferson. They will decide whether your mission was a victorious success or a [| **dismal**] failure! In order to provide them with as much information as possible, each of your team specialists will focus on a different part of the presentation. (Please click on the icon (picture) for your job for the specifics.) You will provide the following:

a detailed map of the Western Territory, including the trail followed by the explorers, the geographical land forms and bodies of water found there, major events along the way, and where they encountered Native American Tribes. (You may need to work with the N.A. Ambassador for this part!) ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p142528140_2141.gif?sc_id=1116450707 width="70" height="60" align="left" caption="p142528140_2141.gif" link="http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2330&sc_timestamp=1086310333"]]

3-4 models of man-made structures, tools, and modes of transportation that the explorers created, used, or discovered along the way. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p248428252_2146.jpg?sc_id=1116450707 width="71" height="61" align="left" caption="p248428252_2146.jpg" link="http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2331&sc_timestamp=1086310337"]]

a graphic presentation of the new discoveries found by the explorers, to include plant and animal life, as well as any other [| **specimen**] previously unknown to those in the eastern United States. You will need a list of the discoveries, plus a poster to include 3-4 of those discoveries with details about the discovery and a hand-drawn picture. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p1045955672_2148.jpg?sc_id=1116450707 width="65" height="68" align="left" caption="p1045955672_2148.jpg" link="http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2332&sc_timestamp=1086310382"]]

8-12 journal entries describing the journey throughout the two years the explorers were on the trail. Two or three entries may be selected to be read aloud within the presentation. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p35149301_2149.jpg?sc_id=1116450707 width="77" height="62" align="left" caption="p35149301_2149.jpg" link="http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2334&sc_timestamp=1086310445"]]

a presentation of the different tribes of Native Americans encountered along the way, along with information about how each tribe related to the explorers; for example, were they friendly or [| **hostile**] ? You decide how best to present this information -- in a written report, a poster, or some other creative way. ||
 * [[image:http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/images/pageitems/p477717724_2150.jpg?sc_id=1116450707 width="77" height="76" align="left" caption="p477717724_2150.jpg" link="http://schoolcenter.hilton.k12.ny.us/education/components/scrapbook/default.php?sectiondetailid=2333&sc_timestamp=1086310433"]]

1. Here is a reminder about the task you are responsible for: * Create 8-12 journal entries describing the journey throughout the two years the explorers were on the trail. Two or three entries may be selected to be read aloud within the presentation.
 * Use special paper to make your journal look authentic! ||


 * 2. You may want to make or use special paper to make your journal more realistic. You can take white (or off-white) construction paper and roll it up in a ball to wrinkle it. Do this several times, then smooth the paper out. To make it look older, paint both sides of the paper with strong tea or coffee. Let it hang to dry, or press it between two layers of paper towel. When it is dry, you can use a thin pen or marker to write your entries. (Make one sheet for each entry!) ||

3. Now begin your research! You will need to take notes as you navigate on the world wide web! Later, you will use these notes to write your journal entries, as if you were a member of the Corps of Discovery! ||
