April 5

 Image result for research meme


Happy Friday!

By today, you should have finalized your idea for the "Do Something" Project. Over the next several weeks, you will work to research and put into practice whatever it is that you are going to "DO"! 

Today you should focus on the research. Whether you are learning how to play an instrument, learning a new language, or learning how to cook, you will need to conduct research related to your topic. 

Your research will need to be recorded on your blog along with the sources from which you pulled your research. By the end of today, you should have a blog post including research that you conducted today. The more research that you have the better. 

At the end of your blog post, I want you to reflect on what further information you need to collect in order to successfully move ahead on your project. 

So what exactly should you have accomplished by the end of today?

1. Research, research, research!-Find and record as much information as you can on your blog. I expect this week's blog post to contain a plethora of learning. This blog post should serve as a reflection of your efforts today. 
2. Record-Make sure to record your sources. At least get the URL of any  websites you use so that you can go back and properly cite your resources for your final presentation.
2. Reflect-At the end of this week's blog post, make sure to write down at LEAST three questions that you still have about your topic. You may have more than three questions. If you do, write more than three questions. 

I am including a to a rubric for the blog post.
