Here’s what we did today:

1. All groups during both periods journeyed to the Kingswood Library Media Center for a presentation by Mrs. Williams on how to cite sources using MLA format.

2. Students also had the chance to add an EasyBib extension to their Google Docs account and were also shown how to use it.

3. For homework:

—Cite in MLA format the current book you are reading and write that down.

—Cite the Mike Anderson piece using EasyBib at the end of your Mike Anderson essay.

—Cite all the sites/resources on a Google Doc you used for your personal essay.

For additional help, here’s a link to the Purdue Online Writing Lab.
