The third grade team and I designed a collaborative information literacy research project around topics of the season. Students worked in pairs and practiced the six steps of research as they gathered and shared their information on a given topic. We explained to students how they will need to be information literate all their life in order to make life decisions and understand how to handle the vast amounts of information that is available to them on a daily basis. A process such as The Big6 helps students understand how best to navigate a research task. And just like you follow steps to make a successful recipe, steps to research help you be most successful with gathering the best information to support your essential question in research. Check out the pictures from this wonderful grade level project.
