RESEARCH RESOURCES DAY 1:IN CLASS ASSIGNMENT

Check out the following resources below during your first day of note-taking. I spent quite some time selecting these sites so they should be filled with valuable info. Remember to use your note-taking skills. The will be the most difficult part of the writing process. 

*Your first chapter will probably begin with: "What is (insert your movement/topic here)?" so look for  the "WHAT? WHY? WHO?" during your first time researching. Good luck!
