SOURCES: Primary vs. Secondary & Reliable vs. Unreliable
To avoid plagiarism it is important to write down all your sources as you're doing research. Once the sources are obtained, you should create a list of the sources using MLA format. This will be the beginning of either your bibliography or works cited page. Please refer to this website for the information that librarian, Mrs. Alueta shared with us during our library visit regarding Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Sources.

ANNOTATION
Annotating is a skill that most students think they know how to do it properly, but actually only do one or two steps of what annotating really entails. After doing a bit of research, I felt that these steps are a good way to start the habit of effectively annotating.
Assignment: Read & Annotate "Killers in Pajamas" - bring notes to class for class evaluation and group discussion and assignment.
