Our district is trying something new next year with our 6th graders (we are a pre-k through grade 6 district) that involves students doing more in-depth research projects than they have in the past. The librarians in our district will be working closely with grade 6 teachers collaborating and even co-teaching. Very exciting! Our district is even looking to offer the librarians and grade 6 teachers professional development on the research process. Which leads me to my question for all of you:

Does anyone know of a presenter who specializes in the research process who we could hire for this PD? Maybe someone who has done PD in your district who was particularly good?

Thank you!
