Today we looked over the All Quiet on the Western Front Essays, based on what has currently been submitted we will doing a SECOND DAY OF REVISIONS Monday & Tuesday next week. Currently students should be fixing the following issues:
- MLA Formatting (Please click link for the OWL Purdue Writing lab for the most up to date information on MLA)
- Page Number & Name at the top (see image in blog post below)
- Double Spaced
- 12 PT Times New Roman THROUGHOUT
- Name, Teacher, Class-Period, Date (Day-Month-Year) at the top left
- Leading in to all Quotes, having them flow WITHIN your discussion, not at the beginning of the sentence. (See Example Below)
- Writers should use the 3rd Person perspective throughout (no I, me, my, mine, we, our, us, etc.)
- No Contractions
- Please have 3 specific elements in your thesis (Look at the AQ War Essay Full Details for the fill in the blank thesis.)
- Highlight your essay AFTER it has been printed, again, see the handout for highlight colors.
