Research papers will begin 2/27---your child will learn step by step how to plan, research, and write a research paper---all work is done in the classroom---except the final typed copy. Because it is done in the classroom, it usually takes up to 5-6 weeks to complete. A due date will be given out later, as I see how they do within the classroom.
