1. Other helpful tips for future writing in history… 1 – Don’t generalize (ex: not all African- Americans were slaves, not all women stayed home during the war, etc..) 2 – Use last names (NO “Phillis” or “Abigail”) 3 – Set up all quotes you include in your writing (As Wheatley states, “ ….” ) and be sure to wrap them into YOUR POINT

2. Text Dependent Analysis 1 – Below Expectations (missing quote, main message of primary source missing) 2 – Developing * Most here * (Includes quote to support main message, understood main idea of primary source, missing analysis) 3 – Meets Expectations (All of “2” but includes analysis (from the brain not in source), makes connections to larger topic, answers the ‘so what?’ 4 – Exceeds Expectations (All of “3” with polished prose, proper grammar and format)

3. For essay – BIG IDEA: For women and African-Americans the War for Independence was about more than just freedom from England. They wanted the ideals of the revolution (liberty, equality) to ring true for them as well. The writings of Wheatley and Adams illustrate this belief : that the Revolution can and should be a catalyst for women’s rights and the abolition of American slavery.
