- The content of your paper will comprise the majority of your grade. Did you include all three sections of your opening paragraph, including a strong thesis statement? Did you support your thesis statement in your body paragraphs? Did you wrap your paper up with a closing paragraph that drove your major points home?
- Part of your grade includes grammar and spelling. Encourage a family member to take a look at your paper to make suggestions. Use all tools available to you, such as Spell Check.

6. Your header should appear in the upper left-hand corner of your paper, exactly as pictured below (with your name and class section). Please look closely at the image below and read each paragraph for additional reminders:
