NOTE TO STUDENTS:
Follow these rules for finishing the outline of the assigned
text.
I. Roman numerals are used for the main heading for
each of the sections to be outlined.
A. Read each paragraph and determine its main
idea (that idea goes here).
1. If there is enough information in the paragraph
to support the idea in A. then list it here.
2. In an outline, a 1. cannot exist without a 2.
so make sure both 1. and 2. support A.
B. An A. cannot exist by itself so a B. is
necessary; find another idea in the same paragraph and put it here.
1. A. 1. and 2 is not always needed.; sometimes
a B. or even an A. can exist by themselves without 1. 2. 3., etc.
2. Make sure the indenting of topics and
subtopics is lined up.
