2. Step 1: The Info
The first step in writing a notecard is in this
very spot. Once you find a quote or a fact
you want to use for your research, write it
in the body of the card, starting on the
second line. Remember, if you use a direct
quote, be sure to use quotation marks!
3. Step 1: Example
The common cold does not have a true
“season,” but it is most common between
the months of November and February.
4. Step 2: The Source
Now that you have your information
written down, it is time to explain where
you got your information. For this project,
we just want to write down the article title
and website at the bottom of the card.
(See below for example)
“Why Mr. H is Bae.” CNN.com
5. Step 2: Example
The common cold does not have a true
“season,” but it is most common between
the months of November and February.
“Common Cold Transmission.” cdc.gov
6. Step 3: The Title
The final step in the notecard process is to
title your notecard. This title only needs to
line up with the research question you are
answering. (See example on next slide)
