Field Study

The goal of Driven to Teach is to make American history come alive in the classroom by taking Utah public school teachers to important historical sites. The hands-on seminars are designed to inform, inspire, and support excellent classroom teaching.

If you are a passionate teacher that really wants to help your students understand the significance of our past and how it applies to our future, we want to hear from you.

I JUST got back from a trip to the Coast with my girls.  HAD to do....yep....Lewis and Clark stuff!

We canoed on the Netul River right by Fort Clatsop.  It was just a couple of hours, but I had to take my canoe, gloves, and other things. You know...just HAD to.

The park guide was pretty good, she would pull us into quiet parts of the river and tell us about L & C. It was so interesting because she told it  like it happened all at once or near the mouth of the Columbia.  Me?  I'm sitting there seeing all the real places in my mind.  WOW!  It was cool!  And to fill in the holes with my daughters was really great, too!

We stayed up in Long Beach, WA where Clark managed to walk to during their wintering.

I LOVE feeling so smart!
