Writing a DBQ A DBQ is a Document-Based Question You must read and analyze primary/secondary

source documents to help answer a historical question

After reading the documents, you develop an argument (thesis) to answer the question

The point is to show that you can read and analyze documents and DEFEND YOUR ARGUMENT!

These are designed to be about 5 paragraphs…. We will start with just planning, then 3, then 5!

While you write use the PURPLE WRITING SHEET FROM Ms. Hall!

FROM THE DOCUMENTS and from your PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE to support your argument

– In your planning, write bullet points for now but include PARENTHETICAL CITATIONS (see the board)
