This month, I implemented research unit with Ms. H's class. This interactive, multi week lesson was integrated directly into the student’s
social studies research project. Students focused on learning the research
process from brainstorming to citations to final editing of the research paper.
So far, the lesson is going well. Students have been
receptive to the information presented and our activities. More work needs to
be done on actually getting students focused on researching beyond the basics.
Finding a method that can keep students interested on one topic is also needed.
I have one student who falls victim to the research rabbit hole (i.e. jumping
from one topic to another).
