Hi!

One thought is to use the OSLIS website to help them with knowing all the
information they are supposed to include, and getting it in the correct
format. The 7th graders in my school love it, and over half of them are
automatically doing bibliographies in correct form the first time. Click
on the "CitationMaker" link from this page:
http://www.oslis.org/secondary/

There are so many different formats to deal with these days, it can be
quickly overwhelming.

Perhaps each student could create an imaginary resource and write it up in
"CitationMaker" and then they could arrange themselves in alphabetical
order?

Take care,
