Objective:  I can hand print a quote/source and citation entry from my second journal article for my civil rights speech.

Bell:  Read through the sample “Work Cited” page provided by the teacher.  List three comments or observations.

Activities:

1.  Share Out:  What do you notice about the comments on the sample?  What do you notice about the margin used for the citations?  Why are some groups of words underlined?

2.  Hand print the first quote on the sample speech handout about “Lester Maddox.”  Then hand print the corresponding or matching source citation.

3.  Promethean Board:  Teacher models representing italics with an underline and notes the indents of lines following the first one for MLA entries.

4.  In the library, find another quote/source and its citation from a journal article different from yesterday’s to develop your speech topic.

5.  Exit Ticket:  Hand print the information for your second quote, modeled by Step 2, and turn it in as you exit for the bell.

6.  HW:  Print the journal for this quote at home and highlight with a marker these three items: quote, source and the source citation.
