AnalysisSlide4

Steps

Step 1: Process the question- what is it asking me to do? What are some key phrases? What is my background knowledge of changes and continuities?

Step 2: Build a framework- Create a timeline or graphic organizer to outline your information.

Step 3: Build your essay- Create your thesis statement.

Step 4: Write it- Be sure to use analysis of continuities and changes.Slide5

Outlining

The essay prompt will lead you to choosing a specific method of essay writing. You need to be fluent in multiple approaches and be ready for any type of prompt.

These are meant to be tools in your toolkit that you can employ at will.

Your essay requires a starting point, transition and ending point.

Pre-writing is mandatory. You should spend 5 minutes organizing and outlining your essay.Slide6

Structure

Intro paragraph with thesis and support information (2 changes + 1 continuity OR 2 continuities + 1 change).

3-4 body paragraphs (1 each on major points with historical evidence and links to global context).

Conclusion restating thesis and showing that you have proved your case.

Whatever organizational structure you take needs to include BOTH continuity and change and the analysis of both. Connect continuities and changes to the global context (what is happening around the world at the same period?).Slide7
