Handouts & Documents

GUIDELINES FOR WRITING PAPER-PUBLISHED COPY:

1.  All papers must be typed using a size 14 font.  *If you are experiencing a printer problem, then the paper must be handwritten using one side of the paper only.

2.  All papers must have a separate title page with the following information:

• Title should be typed in the center of the page and should be underlined.
  
• Bottom center: your name, St. Michael School, date paper is due.
  
  

3.  No name or title should appear on any other page.

4.  If there is more than one page, each page should be numbered in the upper right hand corner.

5.  The entire paper must be double spaced.

6.  Any numbers used within the paper itself (one hundred and under) must be spelled out.

7.  Always check the spelling, especially of the homophones.

8.  Always check grammar, punctuation, fragments, and run-ons.

9.  Make sure you know what the RUBRIC asks you to do since that is how your grade will be determined.

10.  After you type your paper,  PROOFREAD YOUR PAPER, correcting all errors.  Print your paper, staple all pages together before time, and be ready to hand it in on the due date.

IF TEACHER GAVE ANY OTHER SPECIFIC DIRECTIONS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU WROTE THEM DOWN AND FOLLOWED THEM.

*I reserve the right to hand back any papers that didn't not follow directions or have too many errors.  The student will rewrite the assignment handing in both copies (the original and the one that is redone).
