Process
RESEARCH A REAL SCIENTIST
1. First, you'll be assigned to a team of 3 students. Each person will have a job to do in the group.
- The DIRECTOR will read the BioQuest directions and information about the scientists aloud to the group.
- The RESEARCHER will sit at the computer to type, click on links, and complete the Web Quest.
- The RECORDER will record the data about the scientist on the "How Scientists Learn" Data Table.
- EVERYONE will help choose a scientist to research, give ideas for the recorder to use to fill out the Data Table, and report data to the class.
2. Once you've picked a role to play, choose one of the following modern scientists to research. Sign up with your teacher so he/she can make sure each group has a different scientist.
3. Click on the links to research your scientist. The Scientist Profile contains details about how your scientist learns. The other links give even more information on your scientist's work.

WRITE A BIO-POEM ABOUT YOUR SCIENTIST
1. On your own, read through the "Bio-poem" page given to you by your teacher.
2. A bio-graphy tells about a person's life. A bio-poem does the same thing. Read the sample bio-poem to see how information from Laurie's life is used to make a poem.
3. Use the data from your research to fill in the form at the bottom of your "Bio-poem" page. You may need to check back on the websites to find all the information to use to write a bio-poem about the scientist your group researched.
4. Type up your bio-poem on the computer and cut and paste pictures from your internet research to illustrate your work. You may also recopy your bio-poem neatly on another sheet of paper and draw the pictures yourself. Write your poem so that someone who never heard of your scientist would understand his/her work.
