Explorers By Peggy

Last year my fifth graders made trading cards of explorers. Each student selected an explorer and then researched using internet and encyclopedias. The trading cards were designed like baseball cards (instead of lengthy paragraphs they wrote bullets of info) and the kids made the final copy using Appleworks. They were really cute.
Favorite site - enchantedlearning.com
Also the Sept. mailbox has some great ideas.
