Citing Sources

Whenever you take information from a source, you must give credit. Use this web site for an easy way to create bibliographies or work cited pages!

 

 

 

http://www.easybib.com - my favorite for 5th graders

 

 

Always make note of your references WHILE you are taking notes!

 

Book: title, author, publisher, copyright date, place of publication

 

Web Site: name of article, URL (web address), date you accessed the site, date of

 

publication,author, sponsoring organization, name of database.

 

You can only write down the things you can find; you cannot make any up so you

may not find ALL of these pieces of information.



 This is a good site for 3rd or 4th graders:
