PBL - Mrs. Hunter and Friends

PBL QUARTER 2

Welcome Scholars to our second round of PBL! Remember, deadlines matter! Teamwork is so important because everyone in the group works together to meet the same goal. (Multiple Pathways)

What will you create to show your understanding of this question and how will you create it? What do you need to know?

How will you present your understanding to a group of people who have lived through past generations? (Many grandparents and senior citizens that we will connect with and have opportunities to interview)
