Organizing Your Information

Today you'll be assembling your blogmates information into a well organized, digestible form. Create subheadings (ex. Major Characteristics) and paraphrase your information under these subheadings.

Steps:
1. Read over the major guideline questions.
2. For each step, group members should look for relevant information.
3. Record the information until all information is exhausted.

Notes:
  • Not all information will be important, so don't feel you have to include all the information. Discuss the points. Figure out what's important.
  • Depending on the information you have found, you may have to create more subheadings than the guideline questions imply
  • Each group member must create their own sheet, but everyone should have the same information on their paper.
  • The paper you record information on today is a rough draft. Don't be afraid to cross out or draw arrows.
