Exploring the Joy of Nonfiction Reading and Writing

Resources for Educators: Taking Notes & Avoiding Plagiarism

More and more,
teachers are requesting educational resources that go beyond
traditional teachers guides and activity sheets. So while I do still have
those kinds of materials on my website, I’m also offering resources that delve
deeply into the nonfiction reading and writing process from an author’s point
of view. 


Some of these resources focus on books I’ve written and describe various
stages of my creative process in detail, while others provide more general
information  and highlight books written
by a wide variety of nonfiction authors. 


On Mondays this year, I’m sharing some of these resources and providing
ideas for how they might be used in the classroom. Today, I’m going featuring
an article with ideas for helping students take notes more
effectively, organize the information they collect, and avoid copying their
sources. It’s available by clicking on the
Nonfiction Writing Resources icon shown above.
