This week we will begin our study of westward expansion in the United States. We will place emphasis on the Louisiana Purchase and how it greatly changed our nation. We will pay special attention to Jefferson's presidency, the travels of Lewis and Clark, the War of 1812, and the impact of the Industrial Revolution on the United States. We will also research the impact that the expansion had on Native peoples and how all of these events played a role in leading up to the Civil War.
