Take a look at this FUN explorer research project that is sure to captivate your students. This pack includes 24 Explorers Trading Cards and a research organizer! It does NOT include any reading passages, this is ONLY the trading cards.

Teacher Notes:

Over the years, I have seen my own children fall in love with collecting trading cards such as Pokemon. So I knew it would be fun for students to make their own trading cards about famous people in history. It’s also a great way to practice summarizing. And that is how this product came about.

Then I had a thought...What if students could save and collect trading cards throughout the school year for different units? Cards could be saved to review for tests or just for fun. (NEW Trading Cards coming soon for my other units!)

 For best results, print the cards on cardstock or premium brochure and flyer paper from Office Depot. The cards will last longer and be more sturdy. Remember to set the printer on the best quality setting. There are labels in this pack to glue on the front of the pockets or you can write the names using a sharpie if desired. I hope your students love this project as much as mine do!
