About this resource
Description
Young researchers learn that a good answer comes from good sources. This using resources to answer a question worksheet helps second graders write a question, look for information in the resources around them, and use those facts to write an answer they can explain.
Students begin by writing their question on the two lines at the top. Next, they circle each resource they used, such as a book, a computer, a map, or a person they asked. Then they write four facts they found on the numbered lines. Last, they write their answer and tell why they think it is right. Because every child chooses the question, the page fits any science, social studies, or reading topic.
What’s Included
- One printable page with a question area, a circle-the-resources strip, four numbered fact lines, and an answer box
- Roomy 2nd grade writing lines sized for young handwriting
- A reusable format that works with any research question
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
First, it shows children that answers come from sources, not guesses. Second, circling the resources they used helps students notice where their information came from, an early step toward citing sources. Third, explaining why their answer is right builds the reasoning and writing skills they will need for reports in later grades.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this 2nd grade research organizer during a science or social studies unit, at a library center, or as a family homework project. Model the page first with a class question such as how far a monarch butterfly flies, then let partners try their own. Keep copies on hand so the using resources to answer a question worksheet becomes a quick routine whenever a new question comes up.
