Homework Woes...

Hi 6A!

Please leave me a post about your homework concerns.  I will not be publishing your concerns, so be honest, but respectful.

Hang in there!

Gathering Info for Research Projects

Hello 6th Graders!!

This week we continue to learn the "How to's" of writing a research paper!  For today's assignment, each table will be assigned a topic about Ancient Egypt (The Nile, Pharaohs, the pyramids).  Once your group has been assigned a narrow topic, brainstorm a list of questions about the topic.  Each member of the group will then research the questions via the Internet.  Create note cards using notebook paper folded into quarters.  Answer your questions on the note cards, in note card format, making sure to identify your source.  Also, include at least one quotation for one of the questions. 

Pretty soon you will be a Master of Research!

God bless,
Mrs. Murphy
