Homework: The Great Balloon Debate

You are all important historical figures. Your hot air balloon is sinking, and you need to get rid of some extra weight if we are to remain in the air. You will be making a case (as an individual from history) why you should remain in the balloon.



Your homework is to research an individual that you would like to argue for. When choosing your individual, you will need to consider:

Why are they important?

What have they done to improve society?

Remember - it will not necessarily be the most obvious candidate that has the most convincing argument!
