[CASL-L] 9th Grade Science Research Project Question

[Michele Eligio]

Hi,

Does anyone collaborate on a 9th-grade science research paper on climate
change and if so are willing to share out what they've done? Our 9th
graders all complete an argumentative English research paper on an
injustice. They learn how to write a thesis statement, MLA formatting,
in-text citations, creating a works cited page, etc... This is a
semester-long intensive paper. The science teachers now want to have these
same students complete some sort of research paper in their classes. I know
from a survey that went out to students that they feel they need more
extensive instruction on how to use databases. This was part of the
9th-grade research project, but the students were just so overwhelmed that
they honestly felt they needed more practice - great that they realize this
and want to learn more!!! So, if you have such a unit, I would also be
interested in which databases/resources you utilize. As a matter of fact,
if you have a database lesson available I would be interested in that
too! So much to prepare; so little time!!! Thanks in advance. :)
