Sourcing these excerpts can be difficult—it’s hard to produce enough accurate factual knowledge to respond completely to SAQ prompts. This activity introduces you to the SAQ Practice Tool, which is a four-step method that gives you a process you can use when conducting historical analysis while answering SAQs. You will practice this four-step method throughout the year in preparation for the AP World History exam.  \nProcess  \nIn this activity, you will be introduced to the SAQ Practice Tool, which is a four-step process for responding to SAQs that include a primary source.  \nStart by taking out the SAQ Practice Tool. As a class, you’re going to work through a four-step process that will help you expertly respond to SAQs. The steps of the process are:  \n1. Rewrite the prompts  \n2. Review the content  \n3. Analyze and annotate  \n4. Answer the prompts. (Note that for SAQs without a source, you can just skip the third step.) Step 1: Rewrite the following prompts in your own words:  \n• Prompt A: Identify ONE innovation that facilitated trade in the Indian Ocean network in the period from c. 1200 to 1450 CE.  \n• Prompt B: Explain ONE political factor that influenced trade in the Indian Ocean network in the period from c. 1200 to 1450 CE.  \n• Prompt C: Explain ONE cultural factor that influenced trade in the Indian Ocean network in the period from c. 1200 to 1450 CE.  \nStep 2: It’s time to start thinking about how to respond to the prompts. While it’s tempting to first look at the source provided along with the prompts, you’ll probably have more success if you first try to recall what you already know about the topic so that the source doesn’t limit your thinking. To do this, organize your review using the AP themes. For this activity, you are asked to recall what you remember about Indian Ocean trade in terms of innovation, politics, and culture. Go through each of these themes with your class and add historical details you remember in the tool. As needed, you can go back into Unit 2 to review, but remember that on the exam, you won’t be able to do this. For now, however, the process is the most important thing to focus on.  \nWORLD HISTORY PROJECT-AP / LESSON 2.2 ACTIVITY  \nSAQ PRACTICE – UNIT 2  \nSTUDENT MATERIALS  \nStep 3: Once you’ve organized what you remember into the themes, it’s now time to move on to analyzing and annotating the source. As a class, you’re going to read through the source and try to identify any factors that may have helped trade in the Indian Ocean network. As you work through the source, each time you identify a factor, see if you can connect it to one of the themes from Step 2. When you do, highlight that section of text with the corresponding highlight color from Step 2.  \nStep 4: Now it’s time to answer the prompts. Using the ideas your class came up with in Step 2, along with the annotations from Step 3, you should be just about ready to construct your responses. First, look at the highlighted paragraph to see how the themes align to each prompt. Try to see if you can match the specific theme/evidence to each of the prompts. Choose the theme that will help you construct the strongest response to each prompt.  \n• A – answer the prompt/make a claim  \n• C – cite evidence  \n• E – explain how the evidence supports the claim (often referred to as reasoning)  \nYour teacher will walk you through constructing a response. To wrap up, review the SAQ Practice Tool’s four-step process with your class and be sure to ask any questions you have—you will be using this tool all year so the sooner you get comfortable with it, the better.  \nWORLD HISTORY PROJECT-AP / LESSON 2.2 ACTIVITY  \nSAQ PRACTICE – UNIT 2  \nSTUDENT MATERIALS  \nName","cbCaibVTjwM00ZHL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibVTjwM00ZHL","pdf",198841,"English","# SAQ Practice Tool Overview\n## Purpose\n## Process (Four Steps)\n# Step 1: Rewrite the Prompts\n## Prompt A\n## Prompt B\n## Prompt C\n# Step 2: Review the Content\n# Step 3: Analyze and Annotate\n## Provided Historical Excerpt\n# Step 4: Answer the Prompts\n## Claim, Evidence, Reasoning","[{\"question\":\"What are the four steps of the SAQ Practice Tool used for primary-source SAQs?\",\"answer\":\"The steps are: 1) Rewrite the prompts, 2) Review the content, 3) Analyze and annotate the source, and 4) Answer the prompts using theme alignment and evidence.
