Pick an explorer listed below.
In your notebook, write their name as a title.
Find at least 5 facts about the explorer that you did NOT already know (that aren't from our SS textbook).
If you cannot find 5 facts, pick a different explorer.
Write each fact in a sentence in YOUR own words (kind of like Excellence in writing - rephrase the sentence from Briticannica.)
Leave a line/space between each sentence.
Do not write a sentence that you do not understand.
