What educators are saying

This was a great engaging research unit to use with my students before a long break. They loved coming up with the list of people and researching them!
My students love this resource! I use this as a way to introduce research and integrity. It gives them choices and that makes it more engaging for them. They would have worked on this all day had I let them!

Description

When you pick a writing activity for your middle school students, why not add a little fun and creativity? With the Dinner Party Informational Research Project, your students will be eager to get started! This project encourages students to think critically while they construct multiple mini-essays on their chosen dinner party guests.

This resource includes:

  • Copy Link to Google Slide activity
  • Detailed student directions
  • Dinner party planning activity
  • Guest Slide (one for each guest)

Through this engaging expository writing prompt, students can express themselves in a culture they understand while learning how to effectively plan, research, and write content.

This is a digital product. Once you make a copy, you can share it with your students. Students may add their information to the slides, but the content of each slide is not editable.
