Inventors and Inventions Bundle of Research Projects Templates

Do you know where to start with biographical research? This activity walks students through the research process. It is laid out in an age-appropriate and accessible way that encourages independent pursuit of knowledge. They will research a notable scientist, inventor, or invention. Then, you can take it to the next level by having students create their own invention!

TL;DR: Easy for you, appropriate for them!
