Sorry to be rude, but you got yourself into this. By the looks of it this guy had many a note worthy accomplishment. So, follow the link and make your OWN notes on them! Happy paraphrasing...or plagerizing as it may be.

The quickest way to find information on someone/something is wikipedia.org. This is what I got on this Hernando De Soto person from there:

"Hernando de Soto (c. 1500–May 21, 1542) was a Spanish navigator and conquistador, born in the Extremadura region of Spain. He participated in the conquest of Panama at the side of Pedro Arias de Ávila (Pedrarias), Nicaragua and took a very active role with Francisco Pizarro in the Spanish conquest of Peru.

Later, de Soto led the largest expedition of both the 15th century and the 16th century through what would become the Southeastern United States and the Midwestern United States searching for gold and silver and other valuable goods. He is presumed to have died on the banks of the Mississippi River near present-day Lake Village, Arkansas..."

There is more on him on Wikipedia. Read and take notes! And try not to wait until the last minute for these things. Good luck!

Below I found some web sites for information for your project. Whatever amount of paragraphs of information found, you have to "reword" the content, from whatever source, or else you will be "plagiarising" the material (illegally copying existing material and claiming it is your own). I am sure you already are aware of that fact. Your teacher would fail you if they found out, through your references/sources, on any project. It really isn't worth all your efforts to complete something that won't benefit you in the end anyway.

Maybe just start a little earlier on your next project, then you won't get into all this "last minute" panic.

Good luck on writing up something in time for tomorrow's due date. Hopefully my sources will assist you.

well im the worst at this. I wait till the last minute allllll the time so i know what your saying. what i usually do when i have a paper is pick one or two main important paragraphs and pick the main details..put them together..and wallaaaa youve got yourself a project done. Dont know if this will help you but its helped me in the past. just wish i could think of another answer for studying at the last minute..in fact thats what im doing now! good luck!

Procrastination isn't the best idea, but I guess you can't help that now. Print out the information on Soto and highlight the most important peices of information.

If you can find 10 paragraphs, just get out the main details and write it yourself. That does not seem so hard.

I by no ability seen marshmallows. guy that could want to were in basic terms as humorous. searching at your criteria, you likely would not get away with it, yet what I did is get the biggest jar of Vaseline i might want to locate on the save and positioned the egg into it. Dropped that off the roof of the faculty and egg survived high-quality. even regardless of the reality that I carried out the purpose, i became no longer allowed to win because i became instructed which could no longer what the regulations meant by technique of "layout and construct something to stay away from the egg from being damaged".
