Useful sites to help you

I highly recommend using BibGuru to create your Reference Page. It's free, it's easy and will create a page for you to copy and paste into your paper.

*Note: you will have to change the font when you add it to your paper.

This is the 'go-to' site for all things APA. It is an excellent resource when you have a question, or when you would like to look at sample papers.
It is a little bit more than you need for high school papers, however it won't be long before you need a dependable resource for post-secondary papers!
