Seventh Grade Research Investigation Module

School is out for the summer and your family wants to take a vacation.  Mom and dad must do some work for their jobs, so the trip must be in Washington State.  They want to be sure that you have a fun time, so you get to bring a friend along and can plan activities you’d like to do along the way.

Your parents want you and your friend to plan the itinerary for the trip.  They will give you their list of requirements and you can both add things you want to do as well. You will soon discover that there is a lot to do in Washington State.Next
