Author: Jane Newman Copyright 2006 88 pages ISBN: 1-931280-05-3 Grade Level: 1-6
By investigating real-world questions or problems and developing creative products for real audiences (not just the class), students assume the roles of first-hand investigators, writers, artists, or other types of practicing professionals. Teachers provide guidance in how to plan, make decisions, manage, complete, and communicate the results of a research investigation. Jane Newman brings together the Talents Unlimited Model and the Enrichment Triad Model in a research-proven method that raises the completion rate and quality of products. This process takes the guesswork out of preparing students for and guiding students through a real-world project. Reproducible handouts, lesson ideas, and a sample project completed by two fourth grade girls make this resource easy to follow and easy to use.
