Questions about A Shared Research Report

What does the A Shared Research Report worksheet cover?

It practises turning facts from several sources into a report — 2 questions for Grade 2, all on Common Core W.2.7: Read several books on one topic and write a shared report. The instruction to pupils is “Write on the lines. Use the checklist”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which Common Core standard does A Shared Research Report practise?

CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.2.7 — W.2.7, in the Writing domain for Grade 2. The published standard reads: “Participate in shared research and writing projects (e.g., read a number of books on a single topic to produce a report; record science observations).” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.

What age or grade is this worksheet for?

A Shared Research Report is written for Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on W.2.7, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.

Does A Shared Research Report come with an answer key?

Yes. All 2 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.

How many different versions of A Shared Research Report can I print?

25 versions, of which 14 ask genuinely different questions — this skill does not have 25 distinct questions to give, so the rest reorder them and no two pupils still share a paper. Set 1 downloads all 25 as one PDF.

Is A Shared Research Report free to print and photocopy?

Yes. A Shared Research Report, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.

Is there a lesson plan to teach W.2.7?
