Library Smarts elem VG
Nonfiction
Elementary students are introduced to
what research is and how one gathers information. Students are presented with the steps in the
research process, beginning with
asking a question or choosing a question to answer, then gathering
information from a variety of sources, writing down facts and resources used,
and then sharing what one has learned. After one shares
what was learned, an essential piece is to evaluate one’s own findings
about what went well and what could have been better.
As human beings, we are constantly seeking new information to research,
and with time and practice one’s research skills will get better.
