I know it will be several months until I circle back to the Haitian Revolution, but I did make a note in my planbook to consider the Haitian Revolution DBQ from Set 2 of the AP Euro exam this year. It's distinct from the Primary Source Collection for Unit 5. I have my students read excerpts from the DoRoMac and Bolivar's Jamaica Letter, so I was happy to find a resource to round things out with Haiti.

Anne Koschmider , Janet Mann , Casey Profitt , thanks for this reminder last summer. I downloaded it and put it in my files so I remembered for this year. Because I needed something that didn't take too much time in class because I really like this OER video on the Haitian Revolution, I just made a Bell Ringer on identifying the sourcing method that's being used.
You can see that activity plus some video questions on the Haiti Revolution here: Haitian Revolution.docx

Thanks for sharing, Melissa Nowotarski ! I hadn't thought to take this approach to sourcing - having students identify HAPPY elements in exemplars - but I think it's a great approach. It gets students thinking about the skill from a different angle while sneakily giving them some exposure to high-quality examples of sourcing. Great idea!

I never thought to do it either until I was looking at the scoring notes this past weekend. We will also talk about trying to be a little more blunt about identifying the sourcing method we're using, describing what that is, and then explaining how that's seen in the document so we will likely rewrite one or two of them. This identify, describe, explain language is something I pull over from the SAQ and emphasize all year so it's something that they would be familiar with.
Ex. Larchevesque-Thibaud's purpose is to inform her husband in the French government about what's going on so she gives him a clear account and timeline of events.
