We continue the collaborative unit between language arts and social studies this week. This past week students chose a US leader and began researching him or her, including their legacy. As we move to outlining the research paper this week, we are challenging students to not only look at the research facts, but look at the big picture and lasting influence of these leaders.
I’m including a link to Mrs. Gabbard’s classroom website, where there is information on the research project and the Symbaloo which contains the websites we recommend for research: http://gabbardsclass.weebly.com/research-project.html.
The following is an outlook for the week of November 16-20:
Monday- Outline body paragraphs.
Tuesday- Draft funnel introduction.
Wednesday- Draft 3 body paragraphs.
Thursday- Draft conclusion paragraph.
Friday- Vocab Quiz 6 and homework due. Writing catch up day.
The following is an outlook for the week of November 23-24:
Monday- Due: Final Draft of Research Paper
Tuesday- Research Reflection
Have a great weekend!
