Research Projects
Our class has been working on researching. I learned something very important: NOTES! Yes, notes. Why? Okay, so we each had a partner and every partnership had an animal. My animal was the alligator. We got a bunch of books about alligators, and we read them! But we didn’t just read, we took notes, lots of notes. We came up with five subtopics, alligator communication, types of alligators, alligators are good parents, alligator meals and alligator hunting. We studied important vocabulary, not copying and much more. It was hard work researching, but I managed to get all the information down. Then I put it into a Google Slide presentation, in comic book form! Here it is…
Our animal book was just practice, because something bigger was coming. My country studies book. We had to choose a country to study. I chose Egypt. We took notes and more notes from some library databases and just facts that I already knew. We took note after note after note. Then I put my information in captions, my side information into speech bubbles (for my character to say), and visual information into pictures. I spent about two weeks to complete it. I worked hard for those weeks and I put a lot of effort into it. I hope you enjoy!
