Follow the Outline Graphic Organizer in order to complete your outline.
WORKS CITED and INTERNAL CITATIONS
You must create a Works Cited page at the end of your Outline and cite your sources within the text of your outline as well.
Works Cited format should follow these samples:
FOR A BOOK:
Author last name, First name. Title of Book. City of Publication: Publisher, Year of Publication. Medium of Publication.
FOR A WEBSITE:
Last Name, First Name. "Page Title." Website title. Sponsoring Institution/Publisher, Publication Date. Medium. Date Accessed.
After you have written the Works Cited, tell me within the outline where each source is used. After the sentence(s) taken from your book or article do the following:
In Poland, the concentration camps were brutal, (Klein 45).
In the parenthesis is the author of the book you found the information and the number is the page number where you found the information. This should be done for ALL information taken from your text or web research. If your web article has no author, just use the Page Title from the website.
Your team will present your book trailer to class during the final exam week. You will take the objective test first and then your groups will present during the rest of the final exam time.
