Explorers Project Students will apply the research process for this multiple class unit. They will read about a particular explorer, learn about their aims, challenges and accomplishments, and will trace the routes they followed on maps. As a group, they will generate questions to use during the "Interview with an Explorer" section. Students will gain practice in writing skills to communicate effectively as they create a journal from the Explorer's point of view. 5
