Planning
Develop your information-seeking strategies.

Now it is time to plan how your team will work together.

  • What skills will you need to have to be successful?
  • What resources will you need, and how will you gather your information?
  • Decide how you will share jobs.
  • Take a look at the assessment rubrics. Can you use the rubrics to plan ahead for success?

You will use a Note Sheet to gather information on the five regions and the activities that interest your family.  Use this tool to help you select facts that will be important to your decision making process? Be sure that you keep in mind that your trip will take place in the summer.
