Scoring Criteria

Examples

A. THESIS/CLAIM

(1 point) Presents a historically defensible thesis that establishes a line of reasoning.

(Note: The thesis must make a claim that responds to all parts of the question and must not just restate the question. The thesis must consist of at least one sentence, either in the introduction or the conclusion.)

The essay provides coherency throughout the argument by uniting various points in a clear thesis statement. It guides the reader through a chronological explanation of important events and reasons for political northern and southern ideologies.

This essay uses the Missouri Compromise as a starting point and develops issues related to expansion. It argues that sectional tensions increased through the effects of several specific events: the Mexican-American War territorial slavery issue, the abolitionist movement, the Kansas-Nebraska Act, and the election of Lincoln in 1860.
