Lewis and Clark Unit- Corps of Discovery

This unit was 3 weeks long but it was short compared to our unit on the American Revolutionary War.  I didn't supplement with a lot of other books.  But I managed to find a few movies and clips to watch.  

We also managed to do a few other crafts and activities.  I should note that the book that we used for our unit; is: The Lewis and Clark Expedition by Carol A. Johmann.  You can see it in the widget.  This is also the book that the notebook pages that I made goes with.


Notebook Pages:
The notebook pages i created for his unit was so big I had to make two files. Lewis and Clark Journey Notebook Pages 1-CLICK HERE to download.

I made the notebook pages to go along with the book The Lewis and Clark Expedition.  



Project/Crafts:
We tried to do a few crafts with this unit.  You can see more pictures of the crafts and projects we did for this is unit on this blog post.  I just wanted to give a small idea of what we did.  If you want to see more pictures go to my post Being a Member of the Corps.

One we did was make a Keel boat out of cardboard box and Playmobil people.

Also like I stated above we made a few meals that the Corps might have eaten. Here is a picture of one of the meals.  This one is roasted duck with three golden squash and corn and sweet potatoes.

Books and Videos:

I wanted to point out the book The Food Journal of Lewis & Clark: Recipes for an Expedition.  I found this book because I though it would be nice to try and make a meal or two that they might have eaten.  My husband loved the meals I made for our Colonial/Revolutionary unit.  He like this one just as much.  It was a great book because it starts from the White House to the end of the trip. 



Here are also some of the Youtube videos that I could find and added to the our unit.
