You would not need to include jQuery as it is default in WordPress.
I have put two examples below of how to use the wp_enqueue_scripts
hook.
<?php
//* Enqueue Scripts and Styles
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'sample_enqueue_scripts_styles' );
function sample_enqueue_scripts_styles() {
// Using a CDN or URL you would link like this.
wp_enqueue_style( 'google-fonts', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Source+Sans+Pro:400,600,700';
// To link to a file inside your theme directory you would do the following.
// NOTE: Look at the - array('jquery') - you are saying that this script relied on jQuery to be loaded.
wp_enqueue_script( 'sample-js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/sample.js', array( 'jquery' ), '1.0.0', true );
}
Take a look at the notes on this Codex page about wp_enqueue_script.
Hope this helps
Craig :)
