Design a Textbook Page Rubric
1.
The fact
that you are renowned as a historical scholar has lead a publisher to seek you
to write a one page article regarding how social class affected women during
the early America period. You are
excited because you have seen how textbooks can be misused, can be difficult to
read, and can gloss over important issues.
You set to work to create the best article that has ever graced the
page.
2.
Unpack the prompt and use generalizations to
create a 3 pronged thesis:
a.
Compare and contrast how women of different
social classes are influenced by their life experiences in the period of the
Early Nation and determine the consequences (+/-) this had on relations between
the sexes, the rights and responsibilities of individuals, and American
Culture/Values.
3.
Organize your selected evidence to support your
supporting arguments and use the documents, the data, and quotes.
4.
The articles has to have an introduction, a
thesis, a counter claim, 3 distinct arguments, evidence, and a conclusion.
5.
Reference the sources in the writing, but do not
use the letter. Refer to the source by
title or by who wrote it.
6.
The final design has to include the following:
a.
A title
b.
At least 3 subtitles. No more than 5.
c.
At least 1 image/chart. No more the 3.
d.
10-12 Times New Roman or Arial Font because this
is a print job.
e.
Quarter inch margins may be used.
7.
This is going to count as a DBQ grade.
8.
When you are finished turn in your discussion
organizer and your writing organizer as well.
