General Guidelines

Your piece of work should be typed and double-spaced on standard-sized paper (8.5" x 11"),

with 1" margins on all sides. You should use a clear font that is highly readable. APA

recommends using 12 pt. Times New Roman font.

Acknowledgments: (optional)

What Is The Acknowledgments?

The Acknowledgements section is where you recognize and thank everyone who helped you

with your piece of writing. It’s a way to display your appreciation to them in a public and

permanent forum.

Do You Need One?

No. Most pieces of writing do have them, but by no means are they required or mandatory.

How To Write Your Acknowledgments Section

Remember people will read this section and it will impact them especially the ones who are

in them. This section is about those people you are naming, NOT ABOUT YOU, so approach

this as you should your entire work: make it good for the people you are naming, and those

who will read it.

Start with a list of who will go in.

Be specific for the important people, for the most important people, the more specific you

can be in your thanks, the better,For example,

“I have to start by thanking my awesome wife, Veronica. From reading early drafts to giving

me advice on the cover to keeping the munchkins out of my hair so I could edit, she was as

important to this piece of writing getting done as I was. Thank you so much, dear.”
As you go further into your list, you can group people. But again, be specific in your thanks,

even to groups.

“Thanks to everyone on the Scribe team who helped me so much. Special thanks to Ellie, the

ever-patient Publishing Manager; Meghan, my amazing Scribe; and Erin, the greatest cover

designer I could ever imagine.”

Be sincere in your thanks

The worst thing you can do in an Acknowledgments section is say things you don’t believe. If

you aren’t willing to be sincere, then you are better off not doing one at all.

Sincerity means honestly and deeply thanking the people who helped you (mentioning the

specific ways they helped, as noted above), and remembering the way that they sacrificed for

you. Make it meaningful and sincere.

Don’t worry about length

 To Mr. Gentry, who took a chance on a twenty-three-year-old kid and let him run his

offices in Portland, Oregon. He never saw my age, my race, or my lack of formal

education. He just saw a kid hungry to learn, hungry to grow, and hungry to succeed

in business. He never stopped me; he only encouraged me.

 Although this period of my life was filled with many ups and downs, my time in the

mortgage industry was worth it. My time in the industry wouldn’t have been made

possible without Guy Stidham who taught me the honest mortgage game.

 A very special thanks to Mr. Daniel Rodriguez who brought me on as the lowest-paid

employee at Corpus Company and then allowed me to rise through the ranks to

become president of the company. Thank you for introducing me to company culture.

 Learning a second language because of many purposes is a real surreal process. I’m

forever indebted to Mr. Arnold Murga, Miss Mary Chait, and miss Amanda Ibey for
 all their help, keen insight, and ongoing support in bringing my goals come true. It is

because of their efforts and encouragement that I have a chance to step forward to the

next level in this beautiful language.

 To my family. To Aunt Jean: for always being the person I could turn to during those

dark and desperate years. She sustained me in ways that I never knew that I needed.

To my little brother, Mario, and sisters, Rachel and Kristin: thank you for letting me

know that you had nothing but great memories of me. So thankful to have you back in

my life.

 Finally, to all those who have been a part of my getting there: Jennifer Jackson, Kay

Oder, Sharon Slonaker, Julie Fisher, Kathy Chesner, and Brother Smith (RIP). To the

original Headspring team: Kevin Hurwitz, Jimmy Bogard, Mahendra Mavani, Pedro

Reyes, Eric Sollenberger, Glenn Burnside, Justin Pope, Sharon Cechelli, and Anne

Epstein.

 I want to thank God most of all, because without God I wouldn’t be able to do any of

this.

Introduction: (mandatory)

Here the author introduces the material that is covered in the work. Typically, an author tells

the reader what will be revealed in greater detail if they continue reading, consider from 150

to 250 words. (Divide it into paragraphs)

Table of contents: (mandatory)

Also known as the Contents page, this page lists all the major divisions of the piece of

writing, including parts and chapters and their page numbers. Depending on the length of the

piece of writing, a greater level of detail may be provided to help the reader navigate this

research.
Please note, you should include all your Front Matter in your Table of Contents, even though

they come before the Table of Contents.

Body: (10 pages for elementary students, NEVER WRITE “BODY”, but you know this is

the beginning of your work)

The Body is the main portion of the piece of writing. These pages are traditionally numbered

with Arabic numerals with page 1 beginning with the first text of the main body (which

means page 1 is usually the first page of the first chapter).

A well organization of what you are going to say will give the reader a clear understanding of

your intention.

Headings

APA Style uses a unique headings system to separate and classify paper sections. Headings

are used to help guide the reader through a document. The levels are organized by levels of

subordination, and each section of the paper should start with the highest level of heading.

Level Format

1 Centered, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Headings

2 Left-aligned, Boldface, Uppercase and Lowercase Heading

3 Indented, boldface, lowercase heading with a period.

4 Indented, boldface, italicized, lowercase heading with a period.

5 Indented, italicized, lowercase heading with a period.

Thus, if the article has four sections, some of which have subsections and some of which

don’t, use headings depending on the level of subordination. Section headings receive level

one format. Subsections receive level two format. Subsections of subsections receive level

three format. For example:

 Method (Level 1)
Site of Study (Level 2)
Participant Population (Level 2)
Teachers. (Level 3)
Students. (Level 3)
Results (Level 1)
Spatial Ability (Level 2)
Test one. (Level 3)
Teachers with experience. (Level 4)
Teachers in training. (Level 4)
Test two. (Level 3)
Kinesthetic Ability (Level 2)

In APA Style, the Introduction section never gets a heading and headings are not indicated by

letters or numbers. Levels of headings will depend upon the length and organization of your

paper. Regardless, always begin with level one headings and proceed to level two, etc.

 Times new roman font.

 Double spaced.

 Sized 12.

 Justify/Align every single paragraph.

 Number with an Arabic style each page in the body of your work.

 Parts:

Both FICTION and NONFICTION pieces of writing are often divided into parts when there is

a large conceptual, historical or structural logic that suggests these divisions.

 Chapters:

Most FICTION and ALMOST ALL NONFICTION pieces of writing are divided into

chapters for the sake of organizing the material.

BACKMATTER: The Backmatter are the pages after the body of the work.
Conclusion or Epilogue: (mandatory)

A short essay at the end of a play, book, or film/movie, in the voice of the author, which

comments brings closure to the work. (Half page, 2 paragraphs)

Appendix: (optional)

A supplement to the main work. An Appendix typically includes referenced documents cited

in the text, or articles peripherally related to the subject of the piece of writing.

Glossary: (optional)

An alphabetical list of terms and their definitions, helpful in understanding the terms

referenced frequently in the piece of writing.

Bibliography: (mandatory)

The bibliography section lists the sources for works used in your piece of writing. Be sure to

arrange the sources alphabetically by the author’s last name.
