Tour of Minneapolis....Light Rail here we come!

This year we will be taking a Tour of Minneapolis, lead by none other than YOU! Over the course of the next few weeks, you and your partner will be researching a landmark of Downtown Minneapolis and creating a brochure to share everyone on our field trip. We will be taking the Light Rail and stopping at landmarks along the way. At some of our stops, you and your partner will be the tour guides describing the site's significance and importance to Minneapolis, but at other stops, we will be given a tour by an employee of the company/building. This trip will prove to be fun and educational for everyone.
Today with your partner you will just begin your research. You will write down facts and find good pictures of your landmark. I will also begin to show you how to make a brochure using Microsoft Publisher. Good luck and Happy Researching!
