Civil War Common Summative Assessment

Today we write our responses to the Civil War prompts. Each answer should be a well-developed paragraph.
What makes a good response?
  • Topic sentence that gives an overview of what will be discussed. Generally incorporates the prompt/question. 
  • Supporting examples (2-3 examples are sufficient) and complete explanations that include context and analysis (what it means/purpose/outcome/why it is important/notable).
  • Concluding sentence that sums up the entire response.
  • A full, complete paragraph should be at least 5-7 sentences.
