Group Investigative Roles

PHASE 1

In order to prepare for Fred’s party, you’ll need to understand what life was like in the 19th century. As a group you’ll be researching four different areas:

  • History

  • Fashion

  • Etiquette

  • Entertainment

Follow the steps below to complete your research. Once finished, you’ll use this new knowledge to create a gift box to bring to the party!

1. Assign at least one person to become the group expert on each topic. (If you have more than 4 people in your group, feel free to have 2 people do 1 topic).

  • History

  • Fashion

  • Etiquette

  • Entertainment

2. For each topic, the expert will be in charge of completing the following tasks in their “Victorian Expert” packet:

  1. Answer your “essential question” in 2-3 paragraphs (4-6 sentences per paragraph)

  2. Record your notes as you research on your “fact sheet.”

  3. Draw 2 illustrations that will help you explain your topic and include a 1 paragraph description under each.
