Just in case the informational sheet that was sent home on Monday did not make it here is an additional copy! If your child forgot which explorer they got just let me know, because I have a master list.
Explorer Report

Assignment:
You are to do a ONE page report on _______________________________.
In your report, include details like:

These are
just a FEW things you can include in your report. You will be presenting this report to your

will receive extra credit points on your Social Studies grade. Be creative-
look around your house and your parents’ closets (with their permission) for
things to use as a costume.
Please
rehearse reciting your report, pronouncing names, etc. BEFORE
the presentation date, because you will lose points if you are not prepared!
THIS WILL BE COUNT
AS 100 EXTRA CREDIT POINTS!
