AP? English Language and Composition Free-Response Question: Historic Preservation
ROW A
WHAT DOES "SYNTHESIZE" MEAN? To "synthesize" means to draw ideas from multiple sources together into a single argument. The essay is College Board's attempt to evaluate a student's ability to develop an argument with a strong line of reasoning that contains support from reliable sources.
When Your Source is an Image
THESIS
0 POINTS For any of the following:
No defensible thesis Simple restatement of prompt only Summary of topic with no clear claim States an apparent fact rather than a defensible claim. Off-topic
Defensible thesis Clear position
1 POINT
SOPHISTICATION EVIDENCE & COMMENTARY
ROW B
How to Synthesize The following gives a guideline for how much time to spend on each step of the synthesizing process.
1. Read--15 minutes
Spend the 15-minute reading period carefully reading both the prompt for the essay and each source.
? The introduction and the prompt of the Q1 essays are extremely helpful in the brainstorming process. Often, the introduction contains information that identifies the different perspectives and/or stances of the argument.
? Be sure to correctly identify the writing prompt. Do not get distracted by the introduction. It is helpful, but it does not contain the writing task.
? Consider your initial stance on the argument. Based on your knowledge of the topic, you might be able to develop a claim and reasoning. If not, move on to your sources.
? As you read through the sources, identify the claims of each argument, data and evidence that support the arguments, and the assumptions or beliefs associated with the claims and evidence.
One method for analyzing an image is the OPTIC method.
O is for overview--write down a few notes on what the visual appears to be about.
P is for parts--zero in on the parts of the visual. Write down any elements or details that seem important.
T is for title--highlight the words of the title of the visual (if one is available).
I is for interrelationships--use the title as the theory and the parts of the visual as clues to detect and specify the interrelationships in the graphic.
0 POINTS
Simple restatement of thesis (if existing).
OR
Fewer than 2 sources referenced

Prompt--
? Students will review pages 2?8 before scoring the student samples.
Samples--
? You can save these documents as PDF files to share with the students rather than sharing the link with them. By sharing the document rather than the link, students will not have easy access to the scoring commentary until you are ready for them to have it. We recommend that they score samples A, TT, and L.
After students have reviewed and scored the student samples, students can post their scores along with a justification, using evidence from both the rubric and the essays, to the online system you are using. If you are using Google Classroom or Canvas, you can even require that students respond to a peer's score and justification.
Finally, reveal the score of the sample essays via a discussion post of your own.

SELF-PACED OPTION
Although these lesson plans are designed for teachers to assign to students remotely, they could also be administered on a self-paced schedule with some modifications.
We have included an answer key for the multiple-choice questions of Day 5 at the end of this document.

Note: If you have already used the 2019 student samples, you may use the 2018 samples. We recommend these two options because College Board has scored the samples with the new 6-point rubric.

As students review the sources provided with the prompt, they will complete the "Source Chart" handout. To use this document in your online system, you can transfer the PDF over as a Google doc for students to edit. Before sharing the document with your students, review the directions on the right to ensure that your students do not edit your version of the document. As another option, you can use Kami, a chrome extension explained on page 2.
Once students have completed the "Source Chart," they can submit it to you via your online system.
Finally, you may post a discussion question that requires students to share which sources they believe would support their own stance (thesis) and why.
Free Live Review Session for Students: Multiple-Choice Questions
Monday, March 16 at 8:00 PM--9:00 PM ET
Looking for a simple "Force Copy" trick on a Google doc, there are a few steps:
First, make your document "shareable" by clicking the "Share" button. We recommend that you choose the "Get Shareable Link" option.
Next, simply erase the "edit" portion of the URL and replace it with "copy." Clink Enter. Now, your screen should read "Make a Copy?" That is what you want to see!
Finally, click on the URL, copy it, and share it with your students.
USING KAMI TO MARK ON PDF FILES:
If you are looking for an option to mark up PDF files, consider using the chrome extension, Kami. They are offering free upgrades to any schools who are going virtual. This extension allows students to mark up a document and save it to their Google Drive. Obviously, they will need Gmail account to make this work, so plan accordingly. When students mark on a document, they will always save or download it with annotations.
Find the extension here: https:// chrome.webstore/detail/ kami-extension-pdf-and-do/

1. Student Handout: Writing Multiple-Choice Questions
2. Answer Key: Multiple-Choice Questions
AP? English Language and Composition
Student Handout: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Questions 24?30 are based on the following passage.
The passage below is a draft.
(1) Reduce, reuse, recycle. (2) For nearly 40 years, this has been the mantra of environmentalists seeking to limit the ecological damage brought about by the accumulation of too much garbage. (3) In 2015, Americans were responsible for producing nearly 250 million tons of trash per year. (4) Many U.S. communities have implemented recycling initiatives to collect and reuse this trash, including curbside pickup, current recycling systems that utilize single-stream recycling and global changes in recycling processes make recycling an ineffective solution to the growing waste management problem.
(5) Single-stream recycling refers to the process of collecting all types of recycling in one container. (6) Singlestream recycling is great for consumers, who only have to toss recyclable items into one bin, rather than separate each item based on material. (7) This means that aluminum cans, cardboard boxes, and newspapers can all be tossed in together. (8) However, the utilization of single-stream recycling creates a toss-and-go mentality that increases the number of contaminated products being sent to recycling centers. (9) Contaminated products include any items with food residue, items made from mixed materials, and low-quality plastics. (10) If an unrinsed milk carton gets pitched into the same container as cardboard boxes, the boxes could become contaminated by the milk residue, giving both the milk carton and the boxes a one-way ticket to the garbage dump.
(11) To further compound the issue, the cost of recycling is on the rise. (12) This is due, in part, to foreign governments restricting the amount of recyclable materials they will import from the United States. (13) Many Americans do not realize that U.S. recyclables are not processed and remanufactured in the United States. (14) Rather, U.S. waste management companies collect recycling in the United States and then sell it to foreign countries, like China and Taiwan.
(15) In 2018, the Chinese government issued a statement that China would no longer be accepting many categories of waste, and capped contamination standards at less than 1 percent. (16) To put this cap in perspective, it is important to note that U.S. paper products have a 25 percent food contamination rate. (17) This means that, under new laws, China will not be accepting most U.S. paper waste.
24. In sentence 4 (reproduced below), which of the following versions of the underlined text most effectively transitions the reader from the introduction to the main argument of the passage?
24. Identify the task of the question. Are there any important keywords that you should pay attention to? Can you rephrase this question into your own words?

The Synthesis Essay
WHAT DOES "SYNTHESIZE" MEAN?
To "synthesize" means to draw ideas from multiple sources together into a single argument. The essay is College Board's attempt to evaluate a student's ability to develop an argument with a strong line of reasoning that contains support from reliable sources.
When Your Source is an Image
How to Synthesize
The following gives a guideline for how much time to spend on each step of the synthesizing process.
1. Read--15 minutes
Spend the 15-minute reading period carefully reading both the prompt for the essay and each source.
?? The introduction and the prompt of the Q1 essays are extremely helpful in the brainstorming process. Often, the introduction contains information that identifies the different perspectives and/or stances of the argument.
?? Be sure to correctly identify the writing prompt. Do not get distracted by the introduction. It is helpful, but it does not contain the writing task.
?? Consider your initial stance on the argument. Based on your knowledge of the topic, you might be able to develop a claim and reasoning. If not, move on to your sources.
?? As you read through the sources, identify the claims of each argument, data and evidence that support the arguments, and the assumptions or beliefs associated with the claims and evidence.
2. Plan--5 minutes
Before you start writing, you need to know what you're going to write. Consider the following to determine what position you will take in your essay:
?? Look for nuances and complications in the issues and think about how to address some of them.
?? Avoid the first instinctual "for-or-against" argument that pops into your mind. The graders are looking for complex arguments that acknowledge multiple points of view.
?? Develop a basic outline with an overall thesis (as complicated and robust as the topic commands) as well as a claim for each paragraph.
?? Choose which sources you will reference in each body paragraph. We recommend that you use at least two sources within each paragraph.
3. Write--35 minutes
For maximum success, follow these guidelines:
?? Remember, you are making the argument here, not the sources. Your thesis and claims should be authentic.
?? The reasoning and evidence within the body paragraphs should be a combination of your ideas and insight from the sources.
?? Develop a conversation among your ideas and those from the chosen sources.

AP? English Language and Composition Study Guide The Synthesis Essay
Basic Essay Structure:
The Introduction: ?? Open with an engaging hook ?? Identify/clarify the issue at hand ?? Present a clear, direct thesis statement
The Body Paragraphs: ?? Begin with a topic sentence (viz., give one reason in support of your thesis) ?? Explain as necessary ?? Present specific supporting evidence (viz., quotes from the provided sources; you may also bring in other evidence) ?? Document all sources ?? Explain the significance of the specific supporting evidence (e.g., what does the evidence show or suggest as true?)
The Concluding Paragraph: ?? Draw further significance from the reasons and evidence presented ?? Bring the paper to a thoughtful ending (be philosophical; show your wisdom)
Annotated Sample Student Essay
Prompt: Write an essay that synthesizes material from at least three of the sources and develops a position on the purpose, if any, of historic preservation.
Thesis: Although historical preservation can protect properties of symbolic value, it ultimately stagnates the progression of our country.
Identifying Perspectives within the Topic:
In developing a nuanced position, it is important to consider the different viewpoints of the issue. Such perspectives can be:
? Cultural/Social ? Economic ? Artistic/Philosophical ? Scientific ? Ethical ? Environmental ? Political/Historical ? Futuristic
You may consider addressing a few of the applicable perspectives in the introduction of your essay. This helps develop your credibility as a writer.
While it is an indignity that the Pennsylvania Station was 1 replaced with a "dismal modernist urban-renewal complex" (Source F), historical preservation does more harm than good for economic progress in America. Although well-intentioned, many of the architecture protected by the laws have become blemishes on the American canvas. According to Source E, 2 a neighborhood protected by historic preservation laws has become derelict due to the high costs of repair and upkeep. One can assu me that these buildings remain in their destitute 3 state because developers are afraid to invest due to the low property rates. In similar instances, preservation laws make 4 it possible for building owners to "maintain monopoly rents" (Source A). Again, this unintended consequence prohibits financial development opportunities in the community, instead only benefitting the few who can afford to maintain these buildings. In these cases, the preservations laws work against the possible progression that could spark economic growth in the community.
Annotated Essay Explanation 1 This transition sentence quickly moves from the qualifying statement to the writer's next claim.
2 A clear introduction of the source leaves no confusion about where the evidence came from.
3 The student connects the evidence to the claim of this body paragraph.
4 There is a dialogue between the sources and the student's claim.
