Let's look at your research and begin organizing your article by completing a flowchart.  In google docs, open your draft then create a table and type the flowchart.

Review the research on your index cards.  Jot notes/ideas in the flow chart.  It is not necessary to cite anything or write complete sentences at this point.  Our purpose is to organize our thoughts.

Let's organize!
