6th Grade Classes

Week of January 3rd

This week we are beginning our focus on: Taking Notes and Citing Sources


Taking Notes and Citing Sources Using Kid Friendly News Sites


You will visit the links below to explore various articles. You will need to take notes summarizing the articles you read. Then you will need to create at least 2 slides about what you found. Be prepared to share. This should take us 2-3 class sessions.


  • Name of the sites

  • Citation for the sites

  • Summary of the articles you read about the topic

  • Topic to choose from:

    • either Chinese New Year (Lunar New Year) or Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
