This unit is an integrated unit between language arts and social studies. In Part 1, the students choose a research topic based on the current year's National History Day theme, conduct research, and write a research paper. In Part 2, the students create a project based upon the research they have done. They will choose one of five project choices - historical paper, exhibit, documentary, website, or performance.
 * History Day Unit - Part 1 (The Research Paper) and Part 2 (The Project)**

//Does the individual influence history, or does history influence the individual?//
 * Overarching EQ** (of both parts of the unit for this year)

//What is research, and how do I do it?// //What is a research paper, and how do I write one?//
 * Curriculum framing questions for Part 1 (The Research Paper)**

//Which of the five project choices (historical paper, exhibit, website, performance, or documentary) will best showcase my research? Is being part of a group best for me, or would I rather work alone?// //What is a process paper, and how do I write one?//
