Thesis Homework over Exam Days

Thesis Homework over Exam Days

You should be working on the following:

• Tweaking your thesis statement to make it arguable and interesting
• Creating your basic outline with topic sentences,  (Due Monday, but you can earn an extra credit point if you turn it in by Friday night at 11.)
• Finding those primary sources. Don't forget that you can go to Belmont or Boston Public Library to get a newspaper. And search on Gale or EBSCO for primary sources!
• Meeting with me if necessary.  Here is the link to the Meeting Spreadsheet.
• Completing your bibliography on Classroom.  
• Here is a presentation on bibliographies if that helps.  
• On NoodleTools, on the Sources tab, just pick export to a Google Doc to get a perfectly formatted bibliography. You can just submit that.
• If you do not use Noodle Tools, just make sure your bibliography is in Chicago format.
• Bring in your book to show me (and show me the notes you have taken.)  You can bring to our meetings, or even just submit a photo of it to me in Classroom so that I can check the notes.
