PRE-RESEARCH

Tuesday- Thursday:

Homework Check: Subject check
(Students were assigned to list three notable people for research. The person must be well known and reputable)

1. Students will use the online databases to explore each possible topic
2. Students will not take notes, but they will keep a listing for each person
3. Students will read articles (this means you can't just look at blue links, you must actually read the articles to make sure there is suitable information available for each subtopic for each person)

4. Students will notate each area that is appropriate for research. EX: Pres. Bush: Family
(Students will take notes on the areas of his family life. What topics have ample research)

5. On Thursday, we will take our lists and select a person for our research. Students will also select their three areas for their blueprint.

**If you completed this PRE-RESEARCH step correctly, you won't experience any problems finding research on your subject
