3/4/2014- Mini Research

I can use information I researched in books.

Today we went to the library to do a mini research unit. First we talked about how to use the table of contents and glossary in a book. Watch the video below to learn about the table of contents and glossary.

The table of contents has the names of chapters and what page the chapter starts on. Use this to figure out what the book is about.

A glossary is basically a dictionary that only has words that are in the book.

After learning about these concepts we went to the library where we were introduced to the biography section and our assignment.  The assignment is a use books to research a famous person in history and make a baseball card for the person. As you research the person you also need to keep track of how well you follow the process of inquiry.
You will find the two worksheets below.
