Process

1. First, you will be assigned to a team of 4 students, each with a different role to complete. Your team will then be given one of the six counties listed to complete research on. (Sussex, Bergen, Hudson, Camden, Cape May, and Mercer)

2. Your job is to document the most interesting facts, and exciting information you can find using the Internet. As an expert in your field, you will be asked to research a series of questions and present your findings to your team.

3. Together your group will give a presentation to the class using Power Point. You will each feature a different aspect of the county; the charm and beauty of the landscape, some historical points, attractions or points of interest, and any other information that might appeal to a family moving into the area.

4. Click on your role below to proceed to a worksheet guide. Your teacher has provided resource links where you can locate information for your research questions.
