CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.8.5

Tips for Selecting a Research Report Topic Carefully read your lists and notebook entries for topics you care about or that interest you. Think about your audience of readers and topics that would interest or appeal to them. Think about your purpose; to inspire others, to teach something, to present facts or information, to pique your readers’ curiosity, to share concrete facts about a person, to inform readers about an issue…

Tips for Selecting a Research Report Topic Develop a tentative focus List what you already know and questions you have about the topic. Focus on what you find interesting! Think about accessibility of resources Thursday and Friday Ms. Peterson will teach you how to use databases to develop your research topic. The use of websites and search engines for research are discouraged.
