Bell-Ringer:
We will also pass back the papers you handed in with ideas for celebrities.
We will go to the computer lab right after I present a demonstration of easybib.
You may sit with your partner in computer lab as long as you are productive.
Take your handouts, a pencil or pen, and your planner.
Computer Lab 223:
1. Select the celebrity you most want to learn more about.
2. Write in your top three choices, with the one you'd like the most in the #1 spot.
3. Hand in your papers
4. While you wait to find out. . .
5. Start looking for sites that would be reliable and provide you with the information you'll need.
6. Create citations for the sites you find that you think might be helpful. Create the word document and save it on your thumb drive or e-mail it to yourself or (if you can't do the others) print it and hand it in with your other worksheets.
