After we review the MLA formatting rule, you will select a prompt to write a "winter" or "holiday" paragraph of your choice! Remember a good paragraph should have at least 5 sentences. A topic sentence, three detailed sentences, and a closing sentence. Make sure you format your paragraph to the proper MLA format. Use the check-off list below to be sure you included everything! When you finish, watch the video on how to make a personal avatar using code! When you are done you will copy and paste your avatar to your paragraph!
