Include your Works Cited page with all your sources! An essay without a Works Cited page could be returned to you without a grade or given a zero. An essay that uses sources but doesn’t cite them is plagiarism! Three sources are required for the essay. Random websites are not acceptable sources. Government websites are acceptable, as well as websites from reputable organizations. You may include additional sources, but should not have more than five sources. The essay should be mostly your work with sources used to support the claims you are making.
Students must use quotes from each source in the essay.
