Synthesis Essay Prompt Graphic Organizer (AP Language and Composition)

This graphic organizer is intended to be used by students taking AP Language and Composition or other students who are writing synthesis essays. This helps students organize their thoughts and fit the sources to their reasoning rather than the other way around. There is also space for students to examine how sources relate to one another, which increases sophistication of synthesis writing. This can be used with any synthesis prompt or as a research writing activity. It can function as a sort of outline as well.
