- Your next task is to begin to explore in-depth sources, in other words, what historians and other scholars have already written and argued about your topic.
- For the rest of today and homework tonight you must find and read at least two in-depth sources (before reading, please see these Keys to Good Reading).
- You must add the notes from your in-depth sources to your Google Research Doc and highlight those notes according to the color coded system you've been using. Don't forget you must also comment on those notes (in green) as you make them.
- By the end of class on Friday, you need to have another blog post that uses one of the in-depth sources you found to answer a question that you had on the topic. Note that it might not answer it in the way that you want it to or the way that you assumed it would.
This is the blog for Mr. Kramer and Mr. Rigler's 5th and 6th period American Studies class. It features links to students' blogs, assignments, helpful links, and a wide range of other information helpful to students in the class and, hopefully, interesting to others.

Research Project - Day Four
For today, you should have written a post about your topic that provided some information, answered a question that you had, and hopefully raised some additional questions for you to consider that will form the basis for your further research.
