Clark’s Diary Each group will get a primary source drawing.
In your group, read the description and discuss the story behind the picture – what would Clark have written in his journal? When I say so, you will each write your own journal entry as Clark, detailing the events that happened in the drawing. Use key words from the description in your entry.
