Uncle Cyrus Needs A Job

How did natural resources affect choices people made in our local community?

Bellingham Schools Research Investigation

 

 

Synthesizing
Think about the best choice using the information you gathered.

Keeping your guiding question in mind, discuss with your team the information you found about each job. 

  • Write down new ideas and thoughts that arise as you and your partner look over your notes.
  • Identify what information you still need to gather.

Go to your teacher with evidence that you have completed steps above.  

When you are confident that you have complete information, your team needs to make a decision on the best job for Uncle Cyrus.Next  Use the Decision Sheet to record your reasons for making this job choice.  Be prepared to explain why you did not choose the other three jobs for your Uncle.
