1 Revolutionary War Leaders (Using Search Engines Effectively) Grade Level(s): 5th Grade Subject Area(s): History/Social Studies, Information Literacy Description: In small groups, students will research one of seven Revolutionary War Leaders (John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, King George III, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington) using print & online resources. Students are often overwhelmed by the information presented through Google (and other search engines). By working with students to develop strong keywords & phrases before hand, students will be better able to find relevant information in print (index/glossary) and online (through multi modal content). Sharing information in the form of Glogster presentations will motivate students to learn about each of the leaders identified. Essential Questions: Why is (name of Revolutionary War leader) considered a significant leader during the U.S. Revolutionary War? What significant achievements and/or decisions did (name of Revolutionary War leader) contribute during the time of the U.S. Revolutionary War? Goals & Objectives: Instructional Goals: Students will successfully find the information they need from library resources print and online. Students will become efficient and effective at researching and using the library for resources. Students will be able develop strong keywords & phrases to enable them to use search engines more effectively. Students will become experts on their assigned Revolutionary War Leader. Students will effectively be able to relay what they have learned about their Revolutionary War Leader to their classmates and teachers. Students will give a brief oral presentation with the aid of Glogster sharing important facts about their Revolutionary War Leader. Performance objectives: Fifth grade students will use at least 3 different sources and media to find information (books, print encyclopedias, Internet websites, online databases, etc). Students will attain relevant information and take 2 column notes and paraphrase. Fifth grade students will learn at least 4 new facts about each Revolutionary War leader. Fifth grade students will be able to work collaboratively with their group members to create a Glogster online and present their project to the class.

LMS will model using search engines effectively by presenting Glogster project to students ( with laptop & LCD projector in the table area. LMS will then search for relevant information/reputable websites using Google demonstrating the difference between strong keywords and vague searching. One group will remain at library tables with teacher and continue taking notes with print resources. Second group will go to the computers with Library paraprofessional or Instructional Technology teacher. Library paraprofessional or Instructional Technology teacher will work with World Book Online (students already have familiarity with this resource). Students will take notes. Third group will go to the computers with LMS who will provide a mini lesson on developing strong keywords and phrases and assessing reputable websites text, video, images, etc. Students will use Google to find information and take notes. LMS provides assistance, as necessary. Days Three Four: Groups will continue to switch locations and gather information. Days Five Six: Students will meet in computer lab with all available teachers. Teachers will discuss the requirements (review Glogster rubric). Teachers will work with students to create Glogster accounts and presentation. Days Seven Eight: Students will present to class and teach one another about each of the Revolutionary War Leaders. Groups not presenting will use graphic organizers to write 4 important facts about each leader. Assessment: During the presentations, students will fill out a graphic organizer with 4 important facts for each of the seven Revolutionary War Leaders introduced. Classroom teacher will review the organizers. LMS will review the 5 W s of evaluating web sites worksheet to make sure students are using reputable websites with appropriate information.
