MLA Heading

Below is a copy of the email I sent to fifth graders about the heading for their personal narratives.

Dear Fifth Graders,
Please SAVE this email so that you can refer to it throughout the
year.  Here is an example of the heading you should have on your
personal narrative:

Name
Mrs. Woods
ELA: Personal Narrative
Date                                                                                                                     
We will follow MLA style.  It's OK if you've never heard of this before now.  Here's a link:
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/
In the upper left-hand corner of the first page, list your name, your
teacher's name (Mrs. Woods), the subject area and assignment, and the
date (this can be the due date). Again, be sure to use double-spaced
text.  Unless I say otherwise, please use Times New Roman, font size
12.  Everything should be double spaced.  The page # should appear,
starting on the 2nd page, in the top right hand corner of the page.
Please ask if you have any questions!  Mr. Lobovits, Mr. Ben, and I
are here to help!
Good luck!
Mrs. Woods
