This is a Power Point slide I used as a bell ringer on the first day when I introduced the MLA style sheet to them. I gave them a bundle of colored pens and a highlighter to mark each item listed, then we went over the total number of each one found. You’ll need to count up the totals for each, because I don’t have that info any more. The point of the exercise was to let them know what the typical information is that’s needed for almost every kind of bibliography citation.
