Review of What is Due this Week:

1. Research Paper Final Drafts are due Friday, May 28th. (late papers will automatically lose points).

     General Notes of Caution (things to keep in mind when typing your final drafts)

1. Directly cite any information from your research: (not just on "Works Cited" page).
2. Write your paper from your bullet notes, not while looking at your source material.
3. Remember that your paper should "sound like you", not like your source material.

1. Thesis Statement:
   
        -tells the subject of your research paper.
        -gives your view on the subject, and your purpose for writing.
        -is a statement, not a question.
   
   
2. Introduction:
   
        -tells the reader why you are interested in your topic
        -captures the reader's attention.
        -incorporates your Thesis Statement.
   
   
3. Conclusion:
   
        -restates your Thesis Statement.
        -sums up your Research Paper in an interesting way.
        -offers your opinion, and leaves the reader with something to think about.
