=Last week we learned how to use Student Resources for research. We also learned how to use Google Advanced search engine to find reliable sources with the help of Mrs. Meyers and Ms. McLaughlin. In Advance Search, we can change the search to look only at sites that are .org or .gov or .edu. This is a terrific way to narrow down the results of a search. Ask your student to show you how to do this!= = = =This week we are in the library again. Monday is a work day so students can finish finding quotes for their paper and complete the yellow and green sheets that help them cite the source. Those who are finished will begin to write their papers. The librarians will be teaching us how to use parenthetical citations (in-text), and how to create a works cited at the end of the document. We will be in the library all week. Templates for the essay are due Tuesday Nov 15.=

=Paper is due Tuesday Nov 22 in turnitin.com.=

=I will be teaching students how to use Google calendar as an assignment notebook. This requires that they have an email. Google calendar emails upcoming events the day before and again on the day of the activity. Thus, students get reminded twice of whatever they have put on their calendar.= = = =We will not have vocabulary until after Thanksgiving.=
