Report Writing
Guides for writing different types of papers are in your folder just after these
directions.
Your paper must
meet the following guidelines. If it does not, the paper will be returned.
- Choose
either the Inspiration computer based writing program or the writing
template provided in this folder.
- Create
an outline or map of your topic. This must be completed, turned in, and
approved before you start the rough draft of your essay.
- Write
a rough draft of your paper. It must contain an introductory paragraph,
three body paragraphs, and a concluding paragraph. You must cite sources
in your paper and a bibliography is required. The rough draft must be
turned in and approved before you start the final paper.
- Write
the final draft.
- The final paper must be typed
using 12-point font, one-inch margins, and double spacing.
- At
least three different sources of research are required. You may use
the Internet, but at least one source must be a newspaper, magazine (no
online magazines or newspapers), or book. Include these resources in the
bibliography.

create your bibliography go to the CVHS web site.
