APUSH AP U.S. History 5 Point Grading Rubrics for the DBQ and the LEQ Updated
These reflect the 2023 Rubrics!These rubrics are designed to help students gradually attain mastery of the skills required by the APUSH exam while offering partial credit as they work towards that Mastery. Each of the skills required on the essays is divided into a 5 point scale. I really like this method for several reasons:✏️ Although the actual exam provides an all or nothing score, most of my students enter the class with very little knowledge about writing for these specific skills.

EDITABLE Historical Research Paper Materials for US History (Distance Learning!)
A few years ago I realized that while DBQs are great, when students go to college or write at a professional level, what they really need to know how to do is write research papers. Once they have this skill, it’s transferable across disciplines and many professions. So as part of my US History Thematic Curriculum I decided to create a research paper packet that would allow my students to understand the process involved in writing a research paper. It begins with brainstorming a topic, walks the
