| "An
education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much
you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what
you don't. It's knowing where to go to find out what you need to know;
and it's knowing how to use the information you get." William Feather |

Quest is a great little research site. You can use a Big
Six organizational strategy to get started on the research. Get
the kids to help you create a Rubric
so they will know how to evaluate their work...and so you can evaluate
and grade it, too.)
