Writing a Research Paper - Complete Unit
The content is the same, but adjusted for APA style, with additional material covering the basics of APA style. Although it briefly covers the unique paper types in APA - experimental reports and literature reviews, this unit is meant for secondary students who are writing basic research papers. College-level style guides are not included.
Everything here is classroom-tested with hundreds of students who have successfully written a research paper. There are 72 pages of teacher notes, handouts, worksheets, activities and examples, all in an easy-to-follow progression. Includes pre-writing, how to find appropriate sources, taking notes, writing body paragraphs using the "research sandwich" method, outlining, introductions and conclusions, revising, group work, APA formatting, avoiding plagiarism and group work. Also included are fun activities for something a little different. Using this unit, your students might actually enjoy writing research papers!
Please see the table of contents in the preview for a complete overview.
Originally written for reluctant learner high school students, I have had a lot of feedback from middle school and junior high teachers letting me know that they have used it effectively in their classrooms as well.
