Sally Smith CHY 4U Mr. Booker September 19 th, 2018 Title of Paragraph Please note that the 250-word count is an approximation. When a word count is given it is often done to provide the student with a sense of how much detail and elaboration they need to provide. In short it prevents students from writing too much or too little. The general rule is that the writer can be under or be over the word count by 10%. I don t count words and use this to give you a sense of how much explanation you need to provide. Referencing in your Paragraph If you are using someone else s idea(s) or specific information that would not be considered common knowledge then you need to reference that information. The referencing style that is being used for this course is the Turabian Chicago Style which uses footnotes and endnotes and a bibliography. A brief description of how to insert footnotes/endnotes has been provided at the end of the assignment instructions.

How to FOOTNOTE/ENDNOTE In academic research papers and in any other writing that borrows information from sources, the borrowed information (such as quotations, summaries, paraphrases, statistics or any facts of ideas that are not common knowledge), must be clearly documented. WHAT ARE FOOTNOTES/ENDNOTES? Footnotes/endnotes are used to give credit to sources of any material borrowed, summarized or paraphrased. They are intended to refer readers to the exact pages of the works listed in the Bibliography section. 1 WHERE DO FOOTNOTES GO? There are TWO parts to a footnote: 1) immediately after a citation(s) (quote, statistic, etc.) a small number is inserted (each citation is given a number in chronological order) 2) at the bottom (foot) of the very same page where the direct citation(s) were made, a footnote is placed that consists of the same small number as the citation and all the publishing information. 2 WHERE DO ENDNOTES GO? Just like a footnote there are TWO parts to an endnote: 1) immediately after a citation(s) (quote, statistic, etc.) a small number is inserted (each citation is given a number in chronological order) 2) at the end of the essay/book an endnote is placed that consists of the same small number as the citation and all the publishing information. HOW DO I FOOTNOTE/ENDNOTE USING MY COMPUTER? Step 1: Click on references Step 2: choose insert footnote or insert endnote Step 3: type in publication information as follows: Author s First Name, Author s Last Name, Title of Source. (Place of Publishing: Publisher, copyright date) page number. Step 4: scroll back up to your essay 1 G.

HOW DO I EMBED QUOTATIONS IN MY WRITING? 1) If the citation (quote, summary etc.) is 3 lines or LESS, then it is placed within the essay itself with quotations marks. EXAMPLE: The high tariffs were put in place to protect the industries within the country but unfortunately, they also choked off international trade. 3 2) If the citation is more than three lines, then it must be set off by indenting the citation five spaces on left margin and five spaces on right margin without quotation marks. EXAMPLE: Through the 1920 s many people bought items on credit. Due to the fact that this was something new to society, many people went above their budget. The piano that cost $445 cash was purchased with $15 down and $12 a month for the next four or five years. With the interest payments, it ended up costing far more than it was worth. Sometimes by the time the purchases were paid for, they were ready for the junk pile. 4 3 Bradley, Cruxton. Spotlight Canada: Fourth Edition. (Ontario: Oxford University Press, 2000) 185. 4 Ibid, 226.
