Where do I begin?
Let's start with the Plan Proposal.
First, choose a Topic you would like to investigate? What questions do you have about this topic? Write them down. If you do not have questions, use Wonderopolis to investigate your topic. Use their questions to guide you (see the link to your google assignment below, How to Use Wonderopolis).
If your topic is not there, then google an article, check Epic or watch a video on your topic to learn more. As you read/listen write down the questions you have. Are their vocabulary words you can investigate? Is their something interesting you discovered that you may want to investigate further. Remember to copy/paste into a doc the you tube links you use and bookmark the website addresses.
List three or four Guiding Questions that you can research.
