Description
This instructional unit will guide students step-by-step through the research process, including locating reliable sources, taking notes, creating an outline, writing a report, and making a Works Cited page.
I assign multiple research projects throughout the school year because it is crucial that students learn to discriminate between unreliable and reliable sources, take notes, write an organized report, and proofread/edit.
This research report instructional unit teaches students to write four paragraph research reports.
Please read this blog post to find out how I use this resource in my classroom. Also, I've included a screencast video to explain each step of the research process. The free videos are linked at the end of the blog post!
