It's time to assign a research paper, but your students don't know or can't remember how to quote, paraphrase or summarize others' writing? You need a quick review of what quoting, paraphrasing, and summarizing are and when to use each. Just tweak this PowerPoint for your particular subject area or just pop it on the screen and let it roll as is for a brief review of these basic skills. Follow up the presentation with a practice activity in which you give them an article of your choosing, so they can practice individually or as a group the skills you have just reviewed! Originally created for a career research paper, this ten slide PowerPoint is handy enough to use for almost any content area!

Over 20 years of experience as a secondary teacher in public school systems in Indiana and Ohio pushed me to be more creative and risk-taking with my lesson plans. A former administrator of mine (Mr. V!) really supported and encouraged my teaching outside of the box in order to challenge my students and myself. I owe much of my style to his generous and understanding support, as he understood that you've got to break a few eggs to make an omelette! I also consult on and offer Leadership Seminars and Team building in the area.
