We are doing some traveling today! You will choose the state OR country of your choice and create a travel brochure. You will research your state or country before you start filling out and coloring your brochure that I have ready for you.

Our research unit is moving along nicely! Week 1 you used a database and did animal research, Week 2 we learned about the Great White Shark and I used two reliable resources before we tested our memories with Blooket, today we will be using AI. Yes, AI is acceptable and helpful to use when learning about certain things. We will discuss that before you use AI to search a “How to,” you are interested in. I can also print out your “HOW TO” if you send it to me!

We will continue our Research Unit but I will be doing the research part! (you’ll see). Our theme is the Great White Shark. After a short video, slideshow and discussion we can play BLOOKET about everything you learned.

Today we will begin our Research Unit! I have a lot of different things planned for you that you will enjoy. We will have a refresher of what the MEL database is and how to navigate through it. Our first research activity involves you doing research on an animal of your choice using a database.

We have learned how to find picture books, fictional books, and graphic novels in our library using our Destiny Catalog. How do we find nonfiction books? What do the numbers on nonfiction books’ spines mean? We are going to turn into Dewey Decimal System Detectives today. All you need is a pencil and clipboard! You will also checkout at least ONE Non-Fiction book from SORA before you leave.

What is a survey? Why are they important? What do we use them for? After we learn the answers to these questions, we can create our own surveys today! We will collect the data next week.

Let’s review several library terms and ideas that we have learned this year. After reviewing let’s test your skills with a Blooket.

I have a lot of different choices for you today. I will continue reading “Diary of a Wimpy Kid : Poopy Pants,” and then share and model the different websites I know that you will like and learn from. I also have Thanksgiving coloring pages and a Word Search.
