Research

Sources to use for Research Paper writing

To form a thesis statement go to: [] - Essential Question

For help citing or with works cited page go to: [] -choose MLA in left column -choose in the left column the type of source you are using -fill in the areas you can- if you do not have the info. you may skip the blank (example- if your internet site has no author, skip it)

Important Reminders  1.“Quote marks” go around any information you have copied exactly/quoted- even if it’s only a few words. 2.If you paraphrase (put learned material in your own words) from one source, you may cite just at the end of the paraphrasing-every five sentences or so- instead of after every sentence. 3.You must cite after each quoted/copied sentence. 4.Last name and page, or title and page, go in parenthesis (Stem 3). 5.If you have multiple internet sources with the same title and no author, you show the difference by adding a number in brackets (“Chocolate” [1]). 6.Only 1 long quote is allowed- over 4 typed lines- and remember it requires different formatting 7.ellipses... replace words left out of a quote 8.Try to paraphrase much more often than quote- however 3 of each is required
