Homework 3/31 and 4/1

Individual Project Assignments due next class
(typed up and printed if possible...you can print during class, but it wastes group time)





For your bibliography:

www.easybib.com

If you need help using this website, come in during homeroom tomorrow, I will be going over how to use it again if you need help.  Remember to alphabetize your sources using the first letter in the line of your citation. 

Also, I would copy and paste each source into a google doc as you go, that way, they will be easy to print out...sometimes easybib will erase info if you don't hit the correct button.
