Citing Images in Middle School
No Need to Cite the Image:
If you took the photos yourself
If you got the image from a free image website
If you used the Explore Button in Google Apps (or Insert, Images, From Web)
If you got it from a .gov website like NASA.
Must Cite the Image:
If you got it somewhere else online AND it has a Creative Commons license
Usually adding the link to the image where you found it, is OK in middle school. Save the more formal citation for high school and college.
