Building Questions and

Bounty


Let's say you chose Bravery as one of quality of a good leader.

Of course, bravery would be important, wouldn't it?

But wait a minute...how are you going to determine if an explorer was brave?

What does bravery mean to you?

Better think of some little questions to help your find examples of his bravery or cowardice!

 


Your little questions will act like heat seeking missiles*. They'll target the information that helps you answer the large question: Which explorer was the best leader?

Checkpoint: Your teacher must approve your web of little questions. You must have at least three little questions for each leadership quality.
