What educators are saying
I absolutely love this! I used this for our informative writing unit since it was so close to Christmas. We even used an Epic! book on reindeer to do the research. Love this!
This is the second informational paper resource I bought. The format is very structured and organized. The graphic organizers really support student writing.
Description
REINDEER Research Projects, Posters, Guided Report Writing, Graphic Organizers, No Prep Printables, Enrichment, Informational Writing and More
Are your kids in “The Christmas Spirit,” but perhaps you aren’t able to do actual Christmas activities? Are you looking for a comprehensive packet of materials to use when having your students conduct reindeer research? Do you want to offer your early finishers purposeful activities they can do independently that will make effective use of their time and not simply be “busy work?” Would you like to have your students complete a research project outside of the classroom as a home extension? This product meets all of those needs.
THIS IS BASED ON MY POPULAR RESOURCE ANIMAL RESEARCH: ACTIVITIES THAT CAN BE USED WHEN STUDYING ANY ANIMAL .
This product will provide teachers, homeschool families, support staff, and tutors with a no prep collection of engaging activities, resources, and printables. In addition to a comprehensive report-writing packet there are THIRTEEN additional activities that can be completed along with the report or used completely on their own without having the students write a report. They will teach elementary-age students how to research an animal, practice note taking skills, activate schema, draft a report, work through the editing process and publish a report. It also includes a criteria for success scoring rubric that makes the expectations clear to your learners and makes your job of assessing their progress so simple. *****************************************************************************
