There is no other place I’d rather be than teaching and learning with my girls. The freedom that comes with homeschooling allows me to pursue opportunities to travel and learn as much as we can while experiencing things first hand! Welcome to our blog about planning our next big adventure, the Lewis and Clark Trail! The three of us girls plan on a 40+ day adventure of learning all we can about the biology, botany, geography, geology, economics, and civics (and more) associated with the Corps of Discovery journey of 1804-1806. Join us on our journey!

The Missouri Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Commission was charged with the mission to "Rekindle the spirit of discovery, achievement and wonder fostered by the original exploration." Pursuant to this task, the commission developed and coordinated an effective means for the State of Missouri to observe bicentennial commemoration of the Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery. The Commission promoted the public awareness of the historical significance of the expedition related to the Missouri Territory. In addition, the bicentennial commission was a catalyst for accomplishing Missouri's Lewis and Clark Bicentennial capital improvement projects, programs and special events. The bicentennial projects and events were comprised of public (state, federal and local), private, and foundation projects.
There are lots of links to some great curriculum ideas at their website. http://www.dnr.mo.gov/parks/lc-curriculum.htm
