7th Grade Space Exploration Resource List-2 by Joanne Lyons https://padlet.com/jdlyons/4astaljwyhr6swbl Hi 7th Graders! Below is a list of a variety of resources you can use for your English research project on your topic related to space exploration. There are books, articles, maps, databases (that we worked on in class), and videos that you can explore to find information you are looking for. The books are set aside for 7th grade students in the library on a special cart near the front desk. As you do your research and take notes, don't forget to use your own words for the information you find. If you need a direct quote, remeber what your English teacher worked on with you: you must put it in quotations, add an in-text citation and make sure you include the reference in APA style at the end of the report (along with all the resources you used). You may use a citation generator as your teacher showed you in class but, if you have questions about citations, I can help you with that too. en-us 2025-04-24 23:41:36 UTC 2025-04-27 16:21:12 UTC hello@padlet.com Who Was Neil Armstrong? jdlyons https://padlet.com/jdlyons/4astaljwyhr6swbl/wish/3424009004 A great biography about Neil Armstrong who was the first person to walk on the moon.
