A
few weeks ago, I stumbled onto this post
by Laura Perle (@VennLibrarian), Library Director at Milton Academy in Milton,
MA, and found a link to a FANTASTIC
kid-friendly graphic that outlines the steps of the nonfiction research and writing process, from choosing a topic all the way through creating a bibliography.

I know it’s a little hard to read here, but check out this full-size version.

Don’t you just love it? It’s absolutely perfect for students who are working on nonfiction
reports or projects. And it could easily be simplified for younger children.

Not
only is the graphic available on the school’s website, allowing students to access a variety of helpful web links for
further information, Dr. Perle and her colleagues also used it to create
bookmarks that students can use as a guide anytime, anywhere. What a
terrific idea!
