College Board's Content Application FRQ is, in my opinion, the hardest and highest stakes FRQ. Even putting together this video was a bit challenging, but I do think that spending some time reviewing this sleeper of an essay prompt is really important. Aside from the fact that the FRQ is worth THREE POINTS. That is it. This means that when factored so it is evenly weighted against the other three FRQs, each point on this FRQ is worth far more than the other three. Your kids have to have this FRQ down pat. In essence, points are awarded for:
So kids will have to show mastery of up to three different scenarios, concepts, or processes. This requires close reading, clear and deliberate use of language, and lots of critical thinking. I envision a lot of 2s and 1s on this one. For that reason, I used a prompt that was easy to goof up to show kids how to focus their attention in the video and prezi introducing this skill. What do you think? Is this a piece of cake or a whale of a mountain? Feel free to leave comments below.

In the "What will you do" part it says there will be either a political cartoon or a scenario. All examples I have seen are just with a written scenario. Is there an example with a political cartoon? I can't find where it says this might have a political cartoon with it. Thanks for all of this stuff, its fantastic.

AuthorI lovgov. LOVE IT! I love teaching government, learning about it, debating, discussing, asking questions about government. And not the standard boiler plate questions, but the hard ones that are NOT in the books. Archives
