 stands for ‘registered nurse,’ be specific in the field you want to specialize in: 
 pediatric RN, geriatric RN, gynecologist RN, etc.when signing up. That way your 
 research will be very specific. Same thing with being a doctor… don’t just put 
 physician or doctor; be specific in the type of doctor you want to be.) 
HOMEWORK = Study for vocab test Monday and find your sources. 

TUESDAY:
Lesson for the Day
RESEARCH PAPER
-What is a source? Discuss. For the summer reading paper, you used only one source and that 
              was the book. For this paper, you will use 5 sources: 1 book, 2 from a database (I’ll discuss what 
              that is and how to use that later), and 2 websites (must be legit)
   -Once you find your sources, put on Source Handout (pass out)/gives the info to create a Works 
              Cited page, which is the last page of your essay, that tells your reader the sources you used. 
              (You will get a handout later on for this.) DO NOT WRITE SOURCES DOWN ON SOURCE 
               HANDOUT SHEET UNTIL I TELL YOU TO. 
-Now that we have our outline and source handout/how the paper is to be set up and what a 
 source is/that you must have 5, let’s talk more in-depth about the sources: 
-Pass out “How to Access Magnolia Database” and discuss/SHOW THEM HOW TO USE 
 MAGNOLIA
-LOOK AT YOUR OUTLINE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT YOU NEED as far as the topic of 
  the BP and what to type in/research (Discuss this in detail using the outline to 
  show/explain to them.)
-Take to library and spend rest of class looking for, printing off, making copies of sources 
  (bring career textbooks from my shelf).
