At some point in our lives we all need a First Aid kit handy. Lewis and Clark were no different. Although they were limited by the knowledge of the time in which they lived, Lewis and Clark performed almost daily First Aid and needed to have as much medical knowledge as possible to keep the men under their command healthy. Together we will learn some basic First Aid and talk about the different natural medicines Lewis and Clark had at their disposal on the Expedition.
Students in Percy’s Pals will be divided into two groups, based on school grade. Kindergarten through Second Grade will meet at 1:00 p.m., and Third through Fifth Grades will meet at 2:00 p.m. Each section of students will meet for one hour, once a month to engage in a series of scientific adventures inspired by the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Programs will include topics such as Jefferson’s gadgets, mapmaking, geology, plant and animal classification, and medicine and first aid.
