Take Me To Your Leader!

An alien has landed in Baltimore!
It wants to know who your leaders are.
What leader will you take the alien to?

    Activities:
  1. What is a Leader? - These activities will help students to understand what the qualities of a leader are.
  2. Create Interview Questions - These activities will help students to develop quality interview questions based on the sample web page.
  3. Select Local Leader - This activity will offer students examples of local leaders. Students will research people on the list, potentially add people to the list, and ultimately select a person to research, contact, and interview in order to create a biographical web page.
  4. Email Interview - This activity will include practice interviews between classmates, and the actual interview of the subject of the web page.
  5. Biography - Each student will write a quality biography of his/her local leader.
  6. Webpage - This is the final product of the Local Leaders project.
