A good researcher must dig to find words that help answer the research questions. He or she
must toss aside the unnecessary sentences, phrases, and words. The unnecessary words do not
help answer the question.
Sometimes we can call the important
words “Fact Fragments”
“A note is a “fact fragment”- a piece of information that will become a complete thought in the final
project.”
How to find Fact Fragments or Notes?
Find the Treasure Words/Fact Fragments
When taking notes remember….
• Make a new card for each question• Write your question number on the top of the
card.• Write down only important words. • Do NOT copy sentences! That is PLAGARISM• On the Back of the card write a sentence or
sentences that will answer the questions using the important words on the front of the card.
• Give Credit
