Last Minute Reminders

Read ALL of this information! You are responsible for making sure that you fully complete your project and follow all instructions.

• Do NOT print the Title Page, Process Paper, or Annotated Bibliography until I approve it.
  • Exhibits, Performances, Documentary:
    • You will print 4 copies of these when the time comes.
    • They should not be on your board. Instead, these will be stapled together and placed on the table in front of your board.
    • Staple in this order: Title Page, Process Paper, Annotated Bibliography
  • Websites:
    • These will be on your website, not printed out. See more detailed information at the end of this document.
  • Papers:
    • Your paper will be stapled together in this order:
      • Title Page
      • Paper
      • Process Paper
      • Annotated Bibliography

• Double-check the project rules and rubrics to ensure that you aren’t missing anything.

• Include the following on your project:
  • Title (not title page)
    • Should be descriptive and more than a couple words - Use the title that you wrote on the “Writing a Thesis Statement” handout

      • Change (long-term and short-term)
  • Pictures

    • At the top of the page, click “Tools” and “Word Count”

  • Your title page could be your home page on your website or the information on your title page could be at the top or bottom of the page. You are able to choose where this information goes, but it must be visible. Find the names on this example.
