Knowledge and Skills Statement

Inquiry and research: listening, speaking, reading, writing, and thinking using multiple texts. The student engages in both short-term and sustained recursive inquiry processes for a variety of purposes.

During a one-on-one conference, have students explain their plans for researching a specific topic. Task students with determining what information they will seek independently and what they will need from the teacher to complete the assignment. Create and share a rubric for this assessment that aligns with a schedule of tasks to complete over the course of the research project.
