  11. FRQs • Thoughts on your first FRQ experience? • Read the sample; pull out the generic essay rubric and determine what score you would give it – be able to justify why • Sample A • Sample B

  12. College Board Sample Comments • Sample A – 8 – “This essay establishes a clear thesis that undermines the validity of the statement. The essay does discuss the role of geographic differences in the development of the Chesapeake region and Plymouth and provides a general assessment of the differences between southern and northern colonies. However, the student goes on to effectively argue that religion played at least as important a role in shaping such colonies as Maryland, Pennsylvania, Plymouth, and Rhode Island.” • Sample B – 5 – “While the introductory paragraph is relatively complex, making a good connection between economics and geography and mentioning military and health concerns, the essay itself deals with the various areas of North America in only a superficial way. Aside from tobacco growing in Virginia, no specifics about any other colony are discussed. There is some specific, relevant information concerning European ideas about geography and the creation of an empire. The essay’s organization is acceptable.”

  13. …To End • What changes would you make to the FRQ you wrote last class? • Don’t forget about the sample essays on Ischool – practice is very helpful
