Answer these questions in your daybook:

1.  How many in-text citations are there?

2. When you read an in-text citation, check to see if it clearly leads to a source in the Works Cited list. List any problems you find.

3. Are there items on the Works Cited list that were NOT cited in the paper? List them.

4. If you know the page number where information occurred, you should include that in an in-text citation. Please put a star next to each in-text citation in "My Friend Michelle" that SHOULD have included a page number in parentheses. How many are there? [Hint: use the bibliography to help decide if there were page numbers in the source.]
