Last minute C+C essay tips......

As you are finalizing your info for tomorrow's essay, please keep the following suggestions in mind....
1.  Remember to place specific information in your thesis when describing comparisons and contrasting elements.
2.  Essay may be structured however you like.  You do not need to follow a five paragraph format.  The only thing you need to concern yourself with is hitting all points on the rubric.
3.  Remember to obey the time period (WWI- Late 1930's).  Information that falls outside this time period will most likely be disqualified.
4.  You do not need to address a specific SPRITE(s) for this essay.  You do not need to say "social" or "political" within the thesis of this essay.  In this case, thinking along the SPRITE categories may give you some ideas about what you can put in your essay.
5.  Hint: If you take a look at the locations, these are all areas outside of Europe that have either been colonized or have seen some European influence/ interference during this time.
6.  If you are still strapped for topics on these locations, remember to take a look at the Chapter 28 and 29 study guides and notes.  A great deal of information can be found in these previous chapters detailing the time period.

Good Luck on the Essay Tomorrow!
