Third and fourth graders have been using Internet Pathfinders, stored on our Media Wiki, for Internet researching. For both grades, this is an opportunity for using informational text, in electronic forms (websites and eBooks), to find the information they need. The Colonial Webquest that the fourth graders have been working on also incorporates skills such as using charts, map reading, drawing inferences, and forming and supporting opinions. Third graders are also using printed reference and non-fiction books in their research on rocks, minerals, and soil.
