What in me is dark
Illumin, what is low raise and support;
That to the highth of this great Argument
I may assert Eternal Providence,
And justifie the wayes of God to men.

High School Writing II MLA Helps

Hi, students.

Here are the two links that I mentioned in class. The first is a video that will show you how to use footnotes in Word 2007 and 2003; the second is a blog entry that explains (with unfortunately poor capitalization) how to create a block quote. Both of these links are primarily for Word 2007, which I'm assuming the majority of you have. If not, simply Google "how to use block quotes in [insert your program here]" and you should be able to receive instruction that way. :-)

How to use Footnotes
How to Create Block Quotes (Inset Quotations)

I hope these resources help you in your essay journey. Happy writing!

    Mrs. Stewart,

    I know we don't have to, but is it okay if we include in-text citatons on our poem report?

      Probably better to ask these questions via email. I don't get notified about blog comments!
