Third Grade Research 2006
History of Chicago/Wilmette

By the time a student enters third grade at Central they have had at least 3 experiences or more of being a researcher using the IIM method. These students were especially excited about their research about a chosen topic taken from Chicago or Wilmette history. So excited that they gave up their lunch recess time to investigate and find answers to their questions about such topics as The White Sox Scandal, O'Hare Airport, and the Columbian Exposition.

The last step to IIM is presentation. These experienced researchers chose their own product design to present teachers, parents, and fellow researchers.
