I use TRAILS Assessments. You can sign up for free. They have lists of resources and lessons. There is a grade 9 category. Hope this helps.

EXTERNAL MAIL

Hi,

??

My school???s English Department Head has asked me to collaborate in the creation of five research skills lessons for freshmen. In the past I have only taught one class a year that introduces freshmen to databases.

??

Does anyone have resources (rubrics, lessons, handouts, etc.) they would be willing to share? One of the major complaints I hear from teachers is that students only ???google??? things and rely on the top results. I???ve been asked to focus on keyword search development.

??

Thanks,

??

"The old idea of the librarian as a sort of recluse closeted with his books and

interested only in them is the very antithesis of the modern librarian, who

must live with people equally with books, and who must also be keenly aware

of all that is going on in the world around him."

~Linda A. Eastman~ (Head Librarian of the Cleveland Public Library, 1918 to 1938)
