Introducing young students to historical
research? Here is a free printable that allows young students
(primary grades) to collect as many facts from as many sources
as they can find. Either give the student the entire sheet (and
more as they fill up), or cut apart in order to create a
citation card for each "fact" they find on their research topic.
Once enough cards are completed (that is, once an adequate
amount of information has been gathered), the student creates
his/her project on the topic (an informative poster, essay,
etc.). The information on the cards is used to construct the
bibliography. Use of these sheets meets the Core Curriculum
State Standards "Historical Research and Analysis" objective. Click
