 * Formatting Paper Rules (APA Style)**


 * //Mrs. Overly’s Philosophy on Effort://** //People will recognize you for what you’ve done, not what you talked about doing.//

Paper Formatting Requirements follow the APA guidelines of college writing. See below:
 * 1) All papers are typed, no exceptions
 * 2) Font 12
 * 3) Black-Times New Roman Font
 * 4) Double spaced
 * 5) One inch margins
 * 6) Maintain paper within min/max guidelines
 * 7) Students will use four digit number rather than names on papers
 * 8) *Papers with more than three spelling oversights earn no credit, no revision
 * 9) *Papers with more than three fragment/run-on oversights earn no credit, no revision
 * 10) Papers that extend beyond one page require page numbers and a cover page.


 * Remember, you will earn no credit for completing 3/4 of a one page. 22 lines means 22 lines. You wouldn't want to drive on 3/4 of your tires would you?


 * Rules will change for second marking period and become much more realistic to the professional setting.**
