The essay questions each provide a small amount of background information, suggestions for terms the student will need to research and know, pre-writing activities that include taking notes, analysis of a particular aspect of the question and suggestions/questions for class discussion and reflection afterwards.

Lastly, there is coverage of revising, documenting sources in the text and works cited as well as typing guidelines and cover pages. A follow-up section covers skills needed specifically for multi-page essays such as thesis statements, counterarguments, analyzing primary sources, cause/effect, compare/contrast, and preparing outlines and rough drafts. Graphic organizers and a question format are used throughout. Grading rubrics are provided for one- and five-paragraph essays as well as for multi-page research essays.
