Introduction
Now that we have taken a look at professional brochures, you are going to make your own brochure to be displayed in the teachers’ lounge and the library so that students and staff can make informed decisions about where to vacation this summer. You have selected your city and we are going to do some research in class and in the library.
You will be exploring a variety of sources over two class periods in order to determine the three you find most helpful. Then you will have an additional class period to focus on just those resources. Make sure to keep your iPads handy so that you can use your notepad to type up interesting tidbits about your city and keep track of the resources from which you find them.
There are 6 stations set up with different types of resources. Many of the resources are available by clicking on the tabs at the top of this page. You will spend 20 minutes at each station. You’ll get to three stations today and three during the next class. Make sure to use your time wisely! By all means, feel free to access this link at home and explore.
*Remember to keep track of any resources from which you use information. You must cite your sources! Refer to the MLA Style Guide for Middle School Students linked to the library website. We will be using Citefast to format our citation.
