Organizing Your Information

 

Good Job collecting your relevant and accurate information. Now it is time to organize your information in a logical manner.  You must look over all of your information and decide where it belongs in your argument.  How do the pieces fit together?  The order of your argument must make sense and lead the reader to understand your position on the topic. Be sure your notes summarize the information you find and do not copy it word for word.
