Lauren has found the following information during the research process for her informative paper:
•A map of lightning strikes in three neighboring states over the last five years
•A scientific description of the conditions in which lightning develops
•An eyewitness account of a lightning strike
•A detailed account of a day in the life of a storm chaser
What is the most useful next step in the writing process for Lauren?
Determine how these sources relate to one another Write an introduction and conclusion for her paper. Develop an organizational plan for these details.,
Lauren's next step in writing her paper should be to make a detailed outline. It could start with the scientific descriptions of how lightening is formed and move into how the lightening strike data was collected and how storm chasers help in this area, perhaps with a graph showing how the lightening strikes in the three states differ and conclude with how it feels to see a lightening strike up close and how we as a society view lightening.
