These desktop publishing lesson plans rely on traditional methods of research (although access to Internet resources is a plus). The findings of the students work is then assembled into a simple desktop published document. You can adapt these projects to almost any grade/age level. Projects are written as a series of desktop publishing lesson plans with the student as the intended audience. There are two lesson plans for each document. Additional notes to the teacher are at the beginning of each project. Customize these lesson plans and instructions as needed.
