• Assignments that do not include a works cited page will not be scored (see the school policy on plagiarism) and you will be given a zero for the assignment.
• The completion of each part will count towards your term 4 grade (homework grades as well as part of the final grade for the assignment) - so I will be checking in on your progress.
• Be sure to use a formal academic tone (no “I”).
• You are not writing a COMPLETE paper. You are only writing an introduction with a thesis and creating a minimum of ____ “hamburger buns” to prove diagnosis. 

You can use Scrible  to keep track of your source material.  At least one of these sources should be from the GVRL database.  You may also use a website or two.  Use Scrible to create the citation. You can use the ADD-ON in docs to create the Works Cited.  If you choose to copy and paste your citations instead, follow the TADI procedure (See the MLA 8 tab above).  Your Works Cited must look like the example provided.  Paste in the citation for the book.  This is how you should cite the book The Catcher in the Rye:

Salinger, J. D. The Catcher in the Rye. Little, Brown, 1951.
