What kinds of animals do you like? What interesting ones have you seen in a zoo, or at a farm, that you might want to learn more about? Maybe you’ve seen some animals on TV that look interesting. Think about animals in the water, the desert, the jungle, that are extinct, etc. Whom do you admire in some way? (//Must be someone not really in your life for this project//) Maybe you like a sports player? Singer, actor, reality TV show star or host? What about someone who is known to be an expert in their field, like an animal guru or a doctor that has done something wonderful? What would you like to be when you grow up? Who has a job that looks pretty interesting, and maybe you’d like to know more about it; how to get there, what it’s like, etc. What are some places you’ve traveled to or would like to travel to that you haven’t? Do you have relatives that live somewhere that you’ve never been, or a pen pal, or maybe you lived somewhere so long ago that you don’t remember much about it? Did your parents come from far away? What kinds of things do you like to do outside of school hours? Do you participate in extracurricular activities? What do you do when you get home, besides school work? Do you play games, watch TV, have hobbies, special skills or talents that you practice or would like to? Does someone else have a hobby, or something you heard about that you’d like to try? What have you read about or seen that sounds interesting, yet you know little about? Do you know someone with an unusual skill or talent? What topics have you studied or learned about in school that seem interesting to you?
