Paper should be double-spaced 3. For paragraphs: EITHER indent 5 spaces/Tab to indicate a new paragraph without skipping spaces in between paragraphs OR skip a space in between the paragraphs but don't indent (CHOOSE 1) 4.  Dress-ups are listed on in the right margin   *-ly   *w/w : who-which clause   *sv or v: strong verb   *QA or adj : quality adjective   *allit : alliteration   *sim : simile   *met : metaphor   *cl : adverb clause (www.asia.because)   *dia : dialogue   *3sss : words that appeal to 3 different senses 5.  Sentence Starters/Openers are listed in the left margin   *#2 : prepositional phrase   *#3 : -ly   *#4 : "ing"   *#5 : adverb clause (www.asia.because)   *#6 : VSS (2-5 words) 6.  Each paragraph: Topic Sentence and Clincher reflection words should be highlighted.
