NOTES:
• Biographies should be typed in a double-spaced format.
• Letters and Articles can be typed in a single-spaced format.
• The ten conflicts can be single-spaced or double-spaced and must be recopied from the original handout.
• All required work (except for drawings and comics) should be typed or in blue or black ink. Additional extra credit pages can be more colorful.
• The planning worksheet we did early on should not be included.
• Rough drafts should not be included!
• Quite a bit of extra credit is available on this project, so take this opportunity while you can…
• I am providing the MLA-style bibliography, but if you want to retype it, you can get extra credit for that, too. See me for formatting help, as “hanging indents” can be tricky.
