Big 6 Step
1: Task Definition
You
are about to embark on a research journey with your family! You must
first define your task.
- Make
a list of some possible topics that might be of interest to everyone.
Choose one topic for your research.
- TIP--
Give everyone a sticky or piece of paper to write
down a topic. Discuss and vote on one of the topics.
- Together,
brainstorm as many questions as you can about the topic.
- TIP--Think about what you
would like to know and what you would need to know in order to teach
the information to someone else.
- TIP--Think of the 5 Ws: Who?
What? When? Where? Why? and other question words.
- TIP--On a sheet of paper,
write down every question family members ask, even if someone else in
the family thinks they already know the answer.
Give everyone an
opportunity to ask a question.
- TIP--
Create a folder or big envelope to keep all of your
research materials. Put the topic on the front and have all of the
family research members sign it. You can even let everyone help
decorate it!
