Also some quick tips for your works cited page:

1.  Your title should just be "Works Cited"

2.  The whole page should be set to 1.5 spacing

3.  Each citation should have a hanging indent of .5 (that is, everything after the first line should be indented by .5)

4.  Your citations should be in alphabetical order

5.  You should include all works that aided in writing the paper, even if you do not directly cite them in the paper.

Please post any formatting questions you have here.  Please send any specific questions you have about your paper to me via e-mail at paulsonm@cantonma.org
