     How to Make a Works Cited page for grades 6-8

1. Type "Works Cited" in the center at the top of the page.

2. Make a list of citations (sources). To make your citations correctly, use a website like easybib.com  to help you.

3. Citations from articles from World Book online and iCONN are already made for you! Copy and paste them onto your Works Cited page.

4. Put your citations in alphabetical order, by the first word. (Ignore a, an, or the as the first word, when alphabetizing your list.)

Here is an example Works Cited page. (The last citation was copied and pasted from an online iCONN article.)
