After your group has chosen an explorer, you will need to print out a copy of this page for each member of your group. You may use the links provided or you may do a search of your own. You may also use print materials in the classroom, including your Social Studies book. You may work together researching your explorer, but each group member should fill in the Explorer Research Worksheet. You will use this information in creating objects for your chest.
