In Grade 5, students learn the basics about ethical and responsible Internet research. Students learn how to carefully evaluate website resources for reliability, put information into their own words, and cite their sources in MLA format using Easybib.com.
In addition to these valuable skills, students are able to learn about a fun Massachusetts tourist destination and create a website dedicated to increasing tourism into our state! Student websites become part of a larger collection of Massachusetts Tourism themed web pages created by their classmates. These pages include photo slideshows, maps, and more! Students are able to view each other's websites and discover fun facts about the many places to visit in our state. You may view a sample Massachusetts Tourism website by going to masstourism.weebly.com or by clicking the screenshot below. Our Grade 5 students worked very hard on these websites, and they should be proud of their work!
