Description
Are your student struggling with synthesis skills? This ten-lesson writing unit slows down and stretches the process a student must use for the AP® Lang exam free response Question 1. What a student will do in May for Question 1 has been stretched to ten lesson plans here, each of which will take 60 to 90 minutes to facilitate.
Each lesson plan includes materials needed, essential question, "I can" statement, activator, teacher input, student active participation, and summary. All materials are provided on Google Slides, and student exercises include editable text boxes.
This resource has been updated to reflect changes to the scoring rubric. Each lesson plan includes the AP® skills listed in the new Course and Exam Description.
