Hey students! I'm really sorry that I have missed so much time with you. Fortunately, we are
still on the same pace/schedule as last year and have plenty of time to complete and study for the AP exam. You need to do this work on your own. You all need to take responsibility for
this work and the assignments whether I am there or not!! This is a college level class, and in college you complete your work on a weekly basis, submit papers, take tests, and prepare on your own or with a study group. Of course, we will be practicing the written LEQ and DBQ work when I get back. I keep thinking I will be better in a day or two, but unfortunately the doctors have been correct....its a two week ordeal...minimum!!

Dbq essay. First Draft. See file below for explanation of historical writing.

Tips:
Start with a Clearly Stated Thesis
- Some good essay writers begin with a thesis statement, back it up with supporting evidence from documents and outside knowledge, and, if time permits, restate the thesis at the end. Other writers analyze the material and build up logically to their thesis statement. On an AP Exam, you should use whichever method you feel most comfortable with.
- Organize Your Response Carefully
- In addition to having a strong thesis, it is a good idea to have a guiding organizational principle — a stated agenda for making your point. Try to integrate your outside information into your response.
- Make Sure Thesis Matches Assessment & Knowledge
- Many good essay writers support a clear, simple thesis that you can support. Almost every essay — including the DBQ — is designed to allow the student to agree or disagree with the statement.
- Build an Argument
- The best essays — in terms of arguing their case — are those that marshal the positive arguments in favor of their position but that also refute or answer possible rival theses. Even if you think a statement is completely true, it is better to confront and negate the evidence that seems to refute it than to ignore the counterevidence completely.
- Integrate the Documents and Your Analysis
- Don't merely explain what is stated in the documents. …make it a part of an integrated essay in support of your thesis.
- Don't Quote Large Portions of the Documents
- You can quote a short passage or two if necessary, to make your point, but don't waste time or space reciting them
- Synthesis--doing this well means an additional point! (see comments on the rubric)

Attached below is the proper Columbian Exchange document!!! Use this!
You will begin to organize your argument for this DBQ. Tonight you will write
out 3 different thesis statements. Be prepared to share. A thesis is not a restatement of the question. Choose one to support in an argument.
Choose the 6 documents you will use, and, list the information in each you will use as evidence for you claim/thesis. Finally, 'source' the 6 documents. This
will prepare you to write your first DBQ essay this weekend.
- Thesis : Write a thesis that makes a historically defensible claim and responds to all parts of the question. The thesis must consist of one or more sentences located in one place, either in the introduction or the conclusion.
- Argument Development: Develop and support a cohesive argument that recognizes and accounts for historical complexity by explicitly illustrating relationships among historical evidence such as contradiction, comparison, corroboration, and/or qualification.
- Use of the Documents : Utilize the content of at least six of the documents to support the stated thesis or a relevant argument. Must be explicit. Must use the information in their essay. Each doc must be analyzed; support thesis---or no point. Or do all 7 to insure the 6.
- Sourcing the Documents: Explain the significance of the author's
point of view, author's purpose, historical context, and/or audience for at least four documents. May be one sentence. Reliability of the information as an historian and incorporate into the essay
