<p>Prompt: Analyze the responses of Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration to the problems of the Great Depression. How effective were these responses? How did they change the role of the federal government?</p>
<p>I am having a hard time coming up with an opening paragraph, here is what I have so far.</p>
<p>The Great Depression was a hard time in America, and Franklin D. Roosevelt had to job of cleaning up the mess America was in. Roosevelt and his Brain Trust effectively managed the Great Depression with the New Deal economically, socially, and politically. These programs didnt ultimately life America out of the Great Depression, but with the help of World War II, America was back on track.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>You should mention how the role of the federal government changed because of his actions, because that’s part of the question.</p>
<p>How’s this?</p>
<p>During the administration of Franklin D. Roosevelt, there were many uncertainties of the future of America. People were afraid to invest their money in fear of losing it. Americans didn’t trust the government because President Hoover’s administration didn’t do too much to try to improve the economy. Franklin D. Roosevelt brought the government back into social and economic affairs to try lift the country out of the depression. The New Deal was implemented to get America back on track, and many programs helped with that goal. With the help of America getting involved in World War II, the New Deal pulled America out of the depression. Roosevelt’s administration gave the federal government a new role in helping Americans out.</p>
<p>You should’nt mention any of the responses unless its in your thesis. The introduction should recognize the general problems roosevelt faced and the body paragraphs should exelpify those responses You dont want to say too much in your intro and have nothing to say after, and you also dont want to be repetitive.</p>
<p>the only thing you can do is learn techniques and methods, try to ask your english or history teacher for advice and help.</p>
<p>^^ I think OP has already taken his exam by now</p>
<p>If you can bring in historical context from APUSH or your own studies, it will look impressive and give the reader a nice first impression of you.</p>
