  6. For the Works Cited page • You start it on the next blank page. • Web pages would be written in this format: • Last name, First name. Web site name. Publication date. Name of organization or company. Date you accessed page. <http://www... >

  7. For the Works Cited page • If you don’t have an author, the first thing you write would just be the web site name. • Your in-text citation and works cited should match. • Ex. • (Jones) and Jones, Bob. • (Molecules) and Molecules with silly or unusual names.

  8. Independent work • As you are writing, make in-text citations so you know where you got your information from. • Due at the end of class: • At least 3 Sources and 1 Paragraph 8
