Summary Describing the Process
In completing this project, my first step was to choose a topic. I chose Amelia Earhart because I wanted to learn more about her. Then with my English class, I went to the school library to conduct research and get information from at least three resources (internet, book, and encyclopedia). I then paraphrased this information into notes. I also made source cards and a Works Cited page for my sources using the MLA style. Last, I used my notes to prepare an oral presentation.
