that they have been screened by me for accurate content.

2) Use 3 websites and cite the information that you use from each website. Demonstrate

that you have used 3 websites by using examples from each one

3) Cite the full URL of the website. If you use pages off the main website cite them as

well when you direct quote. For example this is a main page of a website

https://museumsofboston.org/ This is a page off the main page

https://museumsofboston.org/portfolio-item/boston-…

4) Single space

5) Only use a heading (one line) and your complete name on your paper

his role in Massachusetts up until 1776.

response to each question on page 2

Questions to answer:
