Final Research Paper Homework due
April 28th Thursday OR May 1st, Sunday: 1. See examples of 3 great MODEL RESEARCH PAPERS on p. 188-210.
* Choose one of the three and read through it! I like the one on the Holy Grail on p. 196-202. This will be very helpful to you as you figure out the correct format, etc.
2. Number every page of your paper in the upper right hand corner with the EXCEPTION OF THE OUTLINE page. (See example research papers, p. 188-210.)
3. FOLLOW RUBRIC #7 PRECISELY…There are many details on this rubric…check them off as you accomplish them!
4. SEE FINAL INSTRUCTIONS HANDOUT…FOLLOW IT PRECISELY!
5. Be sure to fix any errors on your Intro, Body, Conclusion, Works Cited & Final Topic Outline (IF YOU SEE GREEN, THAT MEANS FIX IT!) I surely don’t want to grade the same errors twice!
