All students are to print out the packet below and bring it to class on Wednesday, December 11th. Students are NOT to write on the packet prior to class - we are trying to simulate the time constraints of the actual DBQ essay for the AP exam. If students have been found to have ignored this requirement, I will take the packet away and provide another copy.

Make sure to also have a copy of the DBQ rubric with you on Thursday, December 12th for the in-class writing session.
