Description

Introduce lessons on Online Research Skills with this eBook series. In these booklets students learn strategies to find the right information and how to avoid plagiarism. Share the PDF with students for a paperless experience or print the nonfiction text out as a booklet.

In each eBook file you’ll find:

1.  Instructions for printing – if you want physical copies of the eBooks
2.  Comprehension questions (2 to a page and full-page options)
3.  Vocabulary for this eBook
4.  Higher order thinking questions to ask after reading
5.  3 graphic organizers that can be used with the text (provided in PDF for printing and as PNG files that can be loaded into Seesaw or Google Slides for students to type their answers)
6. 2 Levels of the PDF eBook. Level 1 is meant to be simpler to understand for younger students and level 2 includes more details and higher level vocabulary for upper elementary or middle school students.

The PDFs are designed to be used like eBooks, so you can project each one onto your whiteboard and/or share it as a PDF in your learning management system for students to read through independently. The level 1 version should probably be read aloud to younger students due to the technical terminology.
