Goals: To learn to create a works cited page. To learn to introduce sources properly in our writing. To begin writing our informational essays.
Agenda
1) Introducing sources (keep this handout forever)
2) Creating a works cited page-Once you have created your works cited page on a Google doc, you will have to COPY AND PASTE it onto the last page of your essay. The only thing on your works cited page should be your WORKS CITED, not any part of your essay. Remember that you have to cite sources for graphics too!
3) Work on essays. Make sure to look at RUBRIC in turnitin.com BEFORE you press submit.
TO DO
