5th Grade Countries-Country Research

The fifth graders are on their second part of their Project-Based Learning project, Where Should I Go This Summer?  They are now working on their country research using provided web sites located on their wiki. Each partner is looking up 7 facts on the wiki pertained to their country and then transferring that information onto their country facts research sheet which is located in Microsoft Word.

The students are heavily focusing on copying and pasting their information and urls from their internet resources into their Microsoft Word document.  The purpose of this is to cut back on the time needed to type in everything little thing and to learn a new quick tip that they can further use at home.

Please have your student(s) show you how to COPY (Edit in the Menu Bar >Copy) and PASTE (Edit in the Menu Bar >Paste) different items at home.  This is good practice for them.
