Research Paper Category

*Please submit by email ( **tigrrll at hotmail.com ) **by January 7 if
possible.*

Adult Category: The minimum will be 3 pages, maximum 10.  Focus on clear
writing instead of filling a number of pages.  Use 5 or more sources such
as books, journals (or journals published online), interviews with an
expert (doctorate level), or pictures of artifacts.  Web pages like
Wikipedia will not be considered good sources.  Use a method of citation.
 If you don’t remember the method you used in high school, just be
consistent throughout your paper.  Include a title page with a signed
affirmation that the paper is your work.

Children's/Youth Category: The minimum will be 2 pages, the maximum 5.
 Good ideas and good writing mean more than the number of pages you fill.
Use 3 or more books or magazines.  Include a list of your sources.  When
you quote from a book or article, write the author’s last name and the page
number in parentheses after it.  Include a title page on which you have
written that the paper is your work.
