Ism Poster Requirements

For any of the “ism” philosophies that we have learned about recently, you are going to create a poster that includes the following:
The name of the “ism”
A superhero/supervillain that represents that “Ism”
A sidekick or nemesis that would go along with that “ism” (so, probably another “Ism”)
Catch phrases for both the superhero and sidekick
Should show their beliefs but also how they agree/disagree
A definition of your main “ism” and why you think it is important/impactful
A brief description of which “ism” philosophies they agree/disagree with and why

Example DBQ

Here is an example of an introduction, ONE BODY PARAGRAPH (you would actually need THREE), and conclusion for the DBQ we've been practicing in class. Each part is labeled so you can see how it would all come together.

If you would like, you could write your own practice body paragraph over the weekend and email it to your teacher for their feedback.

Remember, you may use your guided DBQ and one note card per partnership for the DBQ on Monday.
