Explorer Projects!

The students have an upcoming project that will be due on Wednesday, June 4th. We have been working hard in class researching explorers! Students will be required to do the following by June 4th:

They will need to create a poster that includes:
- A large title (the name of their explorer)
- A printed picture of their explorer (already done in class)
- Their dates of birth and death
- A paragraph on their discoveries
- A paragraph on interesting facts
- A labelled map of their route
- A colored flag of their country
- Anything additional they would like to include to make their poster stand out!

Students will also be required to share a speech on their explorer when they present their poster. These will be on Monday June 9th and Tuesday June 10th (tentatively). They should have the information memorized as best they can (cue cards are okay). They should practice at home speaking loudly and clearly. I will be giving them more information on this part next week!

The students have been very eager to research and learn about their explorers in class and I hope they enjoy learning more at home and putting these posters together!
