First, you have to pick a topic for your research project, like about space or animals. Then, you look for information in books or on the computer. You write down everything you find, like facts and cool details. After that, you put all the information together into a report and make sure to give credit to where you found the information. Finally, you share your report with your teacher and maybe even your friends. And that's how you do a research project!

Use the paragraph from a speaker's argument to answer the questions.
You have probably heard the saying that a dog is a man’s best friend. But have you ever stopped to consider why? There are many health benefits from owning a pet for both children and adults alike. For instance, pet owners over age 65 make 30 percent fewer trips to their doctors than those without pets. This might be because owning a pet tends to make people feel good. Dogs provide loyal companionship, which can help combat loneliness and depression in older adults. Also, owning a pet can motivate a person to get outside and exercise and even socialize more with other pet owners.
