Interview a family member, friend or community member to gain more information for locations and stories in your map project. Use the questioning skills discussed in class today.
Remember there are 2 kinds of questions:
closed questions which don't offer the person being interviewed the opportunity to share information (i.e. yes/no questions, questions with definite answers like "how old are you?")
open-ended questions - questions which allow the person being interviewed to give lots of information... they are usually broad. You will then be able to ask follow up questions.
have fun.

ms.S do i ask questions like... how well you know this nieborhood how long haved you lived here?
You may want to ask more specific questions... for instance if you are talking about a corner store or pizza place you go to often, you want to ask questions that will help tell the story of the place for your story... how is it running a store in our community? What do you notice about the people who come in here often? Are there any common factors you can share with me about them?
I hope this helps...
see you in class tomorrow
