 Each entry has a signal phrase.  Each source is introduced with a first signal phrase  Every other time that source is used, a second signal phrase is used. sweet  …..uses a variety of sweet verbs.

 “Everything is great” (“All Children are Great” 4).  Did your writer include a credential….who the heck is this person?  Variety in second signal phrases….beginning, embedded, tagged.  Everything is great, says Yost, with the community (33).  Everything is great with the community, insists Yost (33).

 Each Subtopic includes both Paraphrases Quotations

Each Subtopic section contains at least two different sources.

A. Restates Thesis in a new, powerful, & urgent way. B. Solutions in one sentence or sub-categories C. End is powerful and conclusive.

MUST match HANGING INDENT.  The in-text citation MUST match the name or title in the HANGING INDENT.  If there are sources listed on the Works Cited page that are not found in the sentence outline, highlight that source.
