The Nutcracker Ballet - Research Project Template

Directions:
  1. Only complete your assigned section
  2. Use the sources linked in your section to help you answer the research questions
  3. After you copy/paste directly from the source, put the information in your own words
  4. We always need to cite our sources.  Enter the web address of your resource into EasyBib to get an MLA citation. Britannica and the information in the databases come with citations.
  5. Images also need to be free from copyright and cited.
    1. Look for images images in the databases, which do not violate copyright and come with a citation -- do not use Google images.
    2. Use one of these websites to find copyright-free images (some come with a citation and some do not):
      1. Photos for Class
      2. Wikimedia Commons
      3. Pics 4 Learning
      4. Public Domain Pictures
