Education Curriculum


Lewis and Clark NHP Education currently offers three curriculum guides: The Educator’s Resource guide, the Scientific Discovery Guide and Clatsop & Chinookan Culture of the Lower Columbia River Guide. Request these guides through email.

Honoring Tribal Legacies is a digital collection of teaching resources and units at different grade bands that honor a diverse and inclusive approach to social studies, STEM, language, and other subjects. These original materials are created by indigenous curriculum designers and allies.

The NPS Educators Portal is a one-stop shop for information about field trips, curriculum, activities and materials offered by parks. You can search by subject, grade or standards. Please note that not all parks have entered their educational materials into the portal, so if there is a park with content related to your lessons, you may want to check the individual park website.
