Congratulations to my Noodle! We have been reading, talking about, and watching videos on Lewis and Clark for at least the last four weeks, maybe more. Noodle has really enjoyed the Lewis and Clark story so much that he has asked almost every day to work on his project! His hard work paid off for him.
Books we read:
A Picture Book of Lewis and Clark
Movies we watched:
Working on the project:

Yay!!!!! So awesome! I would love for our Co-op to have Literature or History Fair. I might have to suggest that for next year.
Great job Noodle!!
We moved to Montana almost 3 years ago and the kids have loved learning about the Corps! We visited the Lewis & Clark Interpretive center in Great Falls last week and they've been talking about the expedition non-stop since then!
So fun when they really latch on to something and really EMBRACE learning about it. I'm going to have to look into those books, my boys would be thrilled!

Congratulations Noodle!! It is awesome to see when hard work does pay off. Thank you for sharing.
Yay!!! What a wonderful experience for your son. Thanks for sharing this, I love stories about Lewis and Clark. (I'm a huge history buff.)
Congratulations! How awesome! His project looked great and the comments written by the judges are really impressive. Sounds like Noodle really knew his stuff! :-)
I really wish there was something like this here for my kids. Being, the history buff, I know I'd love it! :-)
WOW! Great job! You must be so proud. It's exciting to see our kids succeed. :)
Wow, what a great project!! We loved the book "How We Crossed the West" and the Ken Burns movie too.
What an awesome project; I can tell he worked hard on it. I love to see what kids can do when they find something that they're really and truly interested in.
Awesome job!!!!
Awesome job!!!!! That is fabulous!!
Great Job!!! I know where to come to get great resources when we study Lewis and Clark in our history lessons.
That is awesome! Congrats!
Lewis & Clark are favorites around here since we can visit several of their campsites (and one's grave). Great Work!!
What a fantastic idea! I organize a science fair for homeschoolers each year. Maybe I should alternate with a history fair...
