Ski to Sea: Around the World

How are cultures shaped by geography?

Bellingham Schools Research Investigation

 

Sorting and Sifting Information
Organize and select information that contributes to your understanding.

Now that you have gathered the information to answer your questions and have chosen and investigated 3 locations, it is time to sort through all of this information.

Ask the following questions while looking at your Ski to Sea Chart and Notes Sheet.

  • Have you found sufficient details to answer all your questions?
  • Do you have enough information about 3 possible host cities?
  • Do you need to develop new questions to adequately cover your topic?
  • Can you delete information that is not useful or does not answer your questions?

Show your completed Notes Sheet to your teacher showing where you deleted information and went back to research more fully.
