Project: Research—Taking Notes Begin reading your sources and taking notes. Find enough information to fill at least four note cards. You will need enough information to write a 400-word report. Use the note card format given in the lesson "Report Writing: Researching." When you are finished taking notes, use the list below to check your note cards. Did you put your notes on cards? Did you write only the main ideas on the cards? Did you avoid writing in complete sentences? Did you write the source of your information on each card? Did you have your teacher check your notes? Did you list complete Works Cited information for each source you used on three-by-five cards?
