Third grade students in Victoria Seropian’s class at Winthrop Avenue School polished their research and writing skills during writing workshop while learning how to construct an informational piece.

The student-researchers chose an animal and delved into information about their animal’s appearance, habitat, potential predators, prey and interesting facts. They utilized books and internet resources to assist them with their investigation prior to writing about their animal.

After completing their research, the students placed their written information on poster board, which included an introduction, research found on each animal, which was organized under various topics, and their conclusions based on findings. The projects included pictures and the sources used during the research process.

The assignment helped prepare the students for research and informational writing as they move forward in their educational studies.
