If I understand your question correctly, my guess is that your teacher wants you to write a rough draft of your paper and include a listing of the resources you used: books, magazines, newspapers, web pages, encyclopedia entries, or any other materials you looked through or gathered information from.\n\nYour listing of resources or bibliography should be in correct format which follows an established pattern of names, title and publication information with the accepted punctuation after each part of the listing.\n\nYour teacher should have specified which "established pattern" also called a "style" to use. There are several types of "style" which set out the rules for the usage of periods and commas and other grammatical rules. There is MLA style (used by English and other such subjects), APA (American Psychological Association) used by psychologists and educators. There are others, but they are less common.

Your school library might have an MLA hand book, but generally....\n\nto site a resource, at the end of the sentence and before the period you do this (Author's last name page number)\n\nmeaning...you actually write the author's last name and then space and then the page number, all in parenthesis.\n\nIn the top right hand corner of all of your pages should be your last name and the page number of the paper\n\nhere's a great website:  \n\nhttp://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_mla.html

It depends on what kind of writing you are talking about. If it is handwriting, it is just a matter of practice. If it is creating sentence structure, you might try going to the library and asking the librarian what you need. They have books on writing from grade school through college and alot of them simplified. If it is writing style, I use a little book my college english teacher recommended called The Pocket Handbook by Kirszner and Mandell. It seems overwhelming when you first look at it, but if you actually take the time to read it, it is pretty simple and straight forward. It indicates MLA style. For other styles, Spark has cheater charts at barnes and nobles for $5 that are quick and easy to use. It is all cut down to common sense, no frills. I don't have advice for the web, but I hope these things can help. =)

Author's name. It also depends on what sources you use as you may have an article with no auther listed so then you go by first significant word of title (no prepositions like the, an, a, etc.)\n\nThe Hacker guide below is very good for using MLA.

If this is the essay for your college entrance (and I am guessing it is, you are usually asked a personal opinion question, not a research question.  If it is personal opinion there is no need for formatting.  If they want strict MLA format, that is a header, a heading, a title and a double spaced essay with parenthetical citations and a Works Cited at the bottom.  Usually a one page essay would abe about 500 words in 11 point font, double spaced.

Well first you'd have to read the book that you would like to make a commentary on. Usually, commentaries on literature and narratives tends to be in essay or article format, usually persuasive and more than likely MLA. Refer to parts in the book to support your arguments, and you have a fact-based foundation to work off of.

MLA is the Modern Language Association. This organization has a document explaining how academic papers should be written wth regards to footnotes and other citations. \n\nBelow is only one copy of the document that you can easily find on the Internet.\n\nGood luck with your research report!

This'll be a great help:\n\nRead the story and take notes on all the characters, what they're like, etc. Then take a different section of notes on their opinions. If you want, take additional notes on age, related to whom, and friends with whom. Then, when you get projects like this, all you have to do is skim through a few notes and not the whole book.

The MLA stylebook might help.\n\nYou should probably pay attention to details, too. This is the religion category. There are other categories for grammar and homework help. In format, religious monographs are very similar to scholarly ones. Subject varies, though.
