Explorer research assignment

Research helps us to better understand what I talk about in the class. At the beginning of the week we started researching Texas explorers using our Social Studies textbooks. Use the following links to further your research journey to complete the research chart we began in class. If you have something that  interests you but doesn't really fit into your chart categories, make sure you write it down so you can share it with the class. Enjoy your research journey!!
