I-Search for October 13

Tuesday, October 10th, 2006

Can you find this week’s information challenge?The Midwest is famous for grain. But I have a few questions…

  • What exactly is a grain?
  • What are the different types of grain? (name at least four)
  • What state in America grows the most corn?
  • What state in America grows the most wheat?

Look it up and bring in your evidence on Friday! Hint: you will probably need to look on more than one website to find all this information.
