(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

Keep a list of all of the things you read when researching, even if you don’t use them.
If you use quotation marks, make sure the quote is 100% correct.
Make sure other people’s feedback (tutors, parents etc) is feedback and not editing.
Cite everything - photos, graphs, data etc.
Only use sources you fully understand.
Only give encouragement to your friends, not your work!
Use different fonts for quotes as you are writing.
Use quotes wherever you use the exact same wording.
Manage your time carefully so you aren’t rushing to meet deadlines.
Research first and formulate your own ideas.
Keep versions of your drafts - don’t just edit the same document.
Try to avoid the same topics you did in the past to avoid copying your own work.
