The Task

You will be responsible for one explorer of your choice. Each explorer will be remembered in one chapter in Exploring Explorers. Your focus is to gather and share information to justify this person's importance in history.

Each chapter will have a least 6 sections:

Background information about the explorer including a photo or illustration Expedition information including reason(s) for the trip(s), difficulties encountered, results of the exploration Summary statements: What contributions, if any, did this explorer make to the future? Why should he be remembered? Timeline of the explorer's life Map of departures, destinations, and land explored or claimed Bibliography
