[LM_NET] 9th grade research projects

[Elizibeth Jurkiewicz <ejurkiewicz@SOUTHLEWIS.ORG>]

Hi all,
I am just finishing my first year in the library and am looking ahead to next year. 
I am in a middle/high school with grades 6-12 and am working with some of the 
English teachers to develop some research projects for next year. 12th grade will 
be doing a thesis paper, 11th grade author study, 10th grade annotated 
bibliography. Some of our English/Social Studies do research projects in 6-7th 
grade. What are some projects you do with English classes grades 8th and 9th. I've 
thought about combining it with a novel they are reading but am trying to come up 
with other ideas. I would like to keep it relatively simple. Any ideas would be 
greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
