• Make sure to pay attention to the overall organization and paragraph structure of your essay. Usually, a well-organized essay will begin with an introductory paragraph, continue with at least three body paragraphs, and end with a concluding paragraph. There should be a clear structure within each paragraph (i.e. thesis statement first, followed by supporting information, then concluding statement).
• Check over your sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
• Your paper must be in your own words—plagiarism will not be accepted. If you quote a speaker or dialogue from a documentary, be sure to put the words in quotes to distinguish them from your writing.
