Remember to review your assignment's notes from earlier weeks to ensure you are making improvements on your writing each time.
Remember (grading key):
To cite the one line quote, using quotes around the phrase and proper citation
To provide a Works Cited/References page as its own page, according to MLA
To proofread and meet formatting expectations from the syllabus
To meet word count
To avoid first person point of view
To keep it as one single paragraph
To have a topic sentence (that states the author's name, the article title, and the main point of the article) and a concluding sentence (that wraps the summary up)
To use transitions between shifts in supporting points
To have at least three major points that explain the main supporting points from the article
To proofread the work so there is no/minimal sentence grammar and punctuation errors
To remain objective: it's not how you feel about the article; it's what the article says, so think like a reporter
