For Monday I have asked that they find three definitions for their assigned word from three different sources (Wikipedia, dictionary.com, britanica.com, encyclopedia.com).
For each definition they find they must also complete a full bibliography citation. They were shown on Thursday a great website where they can plug in the necessary information and have the citation created for them. They can google Kid Bib Tool Kit or follow this link: http://education.bluevalleyk12.org/KidBib/
On the webpage there are citation options for the type of source. Students should make sure to click on the proper link for the type of source they are using.
Please contact me at clark.smith1314@gmail.com if you have any questions about the project. The words we are defining are big picture words and finding definitions may be difficult. If you need some suggestions on where to look, please email! :)
