Directions: The Source Chart is a way for writers to keep track of the various pieces of evidence they find to support their claims and to remember the source where they found the evidence. For this assignment, students are required to find three reliable sources containing at least two pieces of evidence that support the claims of the body paragraphs. Students will need to search for the formulas for their specific sources and complete the chart below using proper MLA format.

Step 1: Find a reliable source that contains information that will support the claims in the body paragraphs. Write down the Source Citation Entry after finding the proper formula for the chosen source (remember that the formula differs according to the type of source found)

Step 2: Find evidence from the chosen source and copy the evidence word-for-word. Make sure to include the in-text citation for the piece of evidence (remember that the in-text citation is typically what comes first in the Source Citation if there is no author + the page number of evidence)
