What is research?

 * Karina, 5th grade: Finding information from a book or your computer when a teacher gives you an assignment to find out about something like animals or science.

For our purposes, let's define research as an investigation of a real-world topic worthy of a student’s attention and effort.
== This wiki has been produced as a "starting place" to go for ideas, resources, and best practices to follow when embarking on a research project with your elementary aged students. ==
