Ask a Research Question

Research starts with a question you can explore. Why do bees visit flowers? gives you more to investigate than Bees are good. A useful question is specific enough to guide your search.

Break a big question into smaller ones. For bees, you could ask what bees collect, what flowers receive, and how that helps plants grow. Write down each answer and where you found it.

At the end, answer the first question in your own words. If you still have a gap, that is a new question. Research is a loop of wondering, checking, and explaining.
