. . the object of your mission is to explore the Missouri river,
and such principal streams of it, as, by its course and communication
with the waters of the Pacific Ocean, whether the Columbia, Oregon,

About the Author
I am a student in 7th grade AEP and this is basically an assignment. I like reading and writing; i read at an adult level. I like writing; my essay actually was fractured into the Jersey Journal. I picked the Corps of Discovery because it made and interesting topic in listing the many aspects of the Lewis and Clark mission. I like the technology with which our education has been enhanced and this webquest is just another example of the technology.
Above is a wordle made from the Introduction.
