How can I prepare to write my essay?!

Be becoming a construction worker, houses are build from the foundation up…and do are formal DBQ essays (Let me show you!)

1.Create a usable thesis that answers the DBQ question in the foundation of your house

2.Add a grabber and background information for your reader

3.Fill in the walls and roof with details, evidence, facts, arguments, ect.

4.Feel confident, you are ready!

How do I cite sources and avoid plagiarism?!

You should use the “source” information provided on the documents to cite borrowed ideas and thoughts (if you don’t..you are plagiarizing…yikes!)

What should you cite? Statistics numbers years QuotationsPersonal opinions/ thoughts

You can do this multiple ways: 1.(Parenthetical documentation): Ex: The sugar island

of Jamaica produced 59,400 tons of sugar in 1789 (The Caribbean).

2.Introduce the source in the beginning of your sentence: According to Sydney W. Mintz, sugar became connected to other products such as, “…tea, coffee, and chocolate.”

3.Introduce the source at the end of your sentence: Once sugar was introduced in Europe, “…no person was ever known to have the power of relinquishing the desire for it,” as described by Dr. Moseley.

What else?!

When you include quotes or cited material you must explain why you used it, not just include it

Ex: According to Sydney W. Mintz, sugar became

connected to other products such as, “…tea, coffee, and chocolate.” Sugar increased the consumption of these items because as an additive it made them more pleasing.

What things do I HAVE to have in my essay?

What do I need to write a great essay?

1. Grabber (hook), used to grab reader’s attention2. Thesis: Blueprint of essay, must answer DBQ question3. Background information: three or four sentences of background

information you reader will need4. Transitions (To begin, following, next, finally, ect) to start all

paragraphs except introduction5. Topic Sentences (baby thesis: break thesis up into 3 topic sentences)

Ex: To begin, climate was one factor that drove the sugar trade.6. Facts7. An argument (“Therefore” statement) ending every body paragraph.8. Citations9. Restated Thesis10. Argument Clincher in conclusion (strongest bits of evidence)11. Must use at least 6 documents and have a point of view12. Formal grammar, conventions, capitalization, ect.
