The review sheet really helped me out, I felt well prepared for it so it wasn't as challenging as I thought it would be. Next time I am going to try and get more outside information.

I didn't really think it was too bad. This first DBQ was on a topic that we had talked about extensively in class, so we all had thorough knowledge n the topic. The review sheet and information that you told us to gather helped as well.
ReplyDeleteI did much better on the DBQ than I thought I would because I knew what to prepare for. Creating an outline really helped with time constraints because I was able to write quickly once I planned everything out.

The DBQ wasn't as hard as I had originally thought it would be. I learned a lot of outside information from the review sheet. Also the documents helped me even though I was afraid I wouldn't understand them.
ReplyDeleteI felt fairly confident about the DBQ, I could have had more outside information that could have helped me, but it was overall a good DBQ to start out with and let us see what we need to improve on or do differently.

I actually felt good about it because I already had an understanding of it because of the review sheet. And for next time I'll try to do even better with my outside information.
ReplyDeleteI really feel that the review sheet helped organize my thoughts and got me better prepared for the DBQ. -Drew
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was reasonably easy. I feel that the review sheet was a major aid in successfully completing the essay.
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was definately not as bad as I thought it would be. I was very happy with the info in my essay. By far though, the biggest help was the review sheet.
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. I made better on it than I thought I was going to.
ReplyDeleteI thought the DBQ was fairly easy and not as bad as I thought it would be because i was well prepared ,and I felt like the topic was something we covered well in class.The only touble i think i had was completely ubderstanding all the documents given, but from notes I knew enough outside information about the topic.I could improve on not taking so much time to plan next time.

ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was tough but i thought i did alright on it. I need to make sure I name the documents in the next one i write though. The topic is not one of my favorite time periods but it went well enough.
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. The tips were a big help to me. I think what also made this a decent experience is the topic was not that bad.
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was not nearly as difficult as I expected it to be and it really helped to plan everything out before hand. The review sheet given to us was very helpful and definitely prepared me well for the assignment. In the next DBQ assignment, I think I could use more information that I already know and tie it in better with the documents.
ReplyDeleteIt was not as hard as I thought it was going to be. The review sheet however was a life saver! I felt pretty good about it when I took the benchmark and everything was cool.
ReplyDeleteThe DBQ was not as difficult as I expected it to be. Thanks to all of the review and practice that we had received for the DBQ. In the next DBQ, I am going to try and incorporate more outside information into my writing as well as tying in information within the documents.
