  1. Rachel M.

    This was a great resource for my students to use to complete a report.

  2. Mrs. MacClure’s Home Ec Classroom

    We used these templates when my students did a research project on early explorers. They were an awesome template and look great on my classroom display. The only recommendation I have is to add the date of death to the demographic details and have less bullets for the interesting facts as some of my students’ wrote quite a bit. Otherwise, absolutely love it! The characters on them are super cute too.

  3. KELLY J.

    I used this with my homeschooling 4th grader. It was a great resource for her to fill out to use as a study guide.

  4. tommiann V.

    perfect for a bulletin board display and project!

  5. Michele C.

    My students used this as an independent research project to learn about North American Explorers. Students were able to learn about their explorer and those of their classmates.

    This is a great resource to use when teaching explorers, since purchasing it I have used it every time. I like the illustrations and overall product. Happy with my purchase as are my students.

    I love Little Ladybug Shop and use her templates for most of the research my kids do in class. These did not disappoint! Well laid out with clear topics to make research easy for students. The graphics are great and provide interest and a beautiful visual component to the research. I love the guided nature of these pages! Highly recommend!

  11. Becky McKay

    This was a great resource for students to work together to research early European explorers and then display their work. Thank you for this! It was engaging because students got to work with classmates and use technology. This could be an independent activity as well.

  12. Erica S.

    I aligned videos with this resource and my kids loved it!

  13. The Grounded Grade

    Very fun activity for students!

  17. LeAnn J.

    I had my sub use this resource while I was out with COVID. My sub said it was easy to follow and the students had no problems with following directions. Thank you!

  18. Literally LeBlanc

    Just what I was looking for!

  19. Holley Vaughn

    Good research project that does not take a lot of time. The students can get it done in 2 days and share with the class. Some research projects are way too long to devote time to so this one was perfect. It also looked really nice in the hallway when finished.

  20. Sarah S.

    Just what I needed, thanks!
