Santa+Fe+Journal+Entries

Westward expansion is one of the areas that grade eight has been studying this year. We've been learning about the Santa Fe Trail and have read some of the journal entries from the Lewis and Clark Expedition. As one of our assignments, the students were asked to write a journal entry of their own as if they were on the trail westward. Students could write as themselves or as if he/she were someone else. Our students really have great imagination!

Please check out our entries! All documents were written using Microsoft Word, 2007. We will work on making it easier to access these in the near future for those with older versions of Word; check back again! **Process now complete! To access them in an earlier version of Word, go to Journal, page 2!**

You'll have to use your "back" button to return to this page after opening each page. **Thanks, Ryan & Coleman, for getting these from all the computers in the lab!**
