Step 3, Choice B O Paraphrase the

information from the source

O Put Sammy’s ideas in your own words

Step 4 O Last, but not least…..O Explain what the information

means! Including a citation or information is not any good if you don’t explain it!!

O Remember to provide a citation (footnote) in Chicago style – SEE THE BIBLIOGRAPHY GUIDE

O Remember….when in doubt SITE IT. Each paragraph should have at least one citation at the end of it.

O Give Sammy the credit that he deserves!
