We just finished up an inquiry into animals from across the world and their habitats. My 3rd graders had a blast picking their animal and conducting their own research in their research folders.
We went through a series of steps to conducting research and brainstorming our thoughts. I charted how we walked through developing our prior knowledge and on the bottom is a sample of the research folder that they students created for their animals. I chose the polar bear, I mean come on, look at him!
We are big on charting in my classroom so the whole lesson is charted in one way or another. I even charted a whole draft of my essay for the students to see and to use as a way to revise and edit.
I created a few worksheets as well which I will post for future use.
Happy Tuesday!
