Question: Evaluate the grievances of the Third
Estate prior to the French Revolution of 1789,
and analyze the extent to which they were
addressed during the course of the revolution to
1792.
Evaluate=Discuss the advantages and
disadvantages, or the positive and negative
aspects, of a topic.
Analyze= Conduct an in depth examination of an
event and reach conclusions regarding its
importance or its relationship to other events.
“Evaluate the grievances” involves a discussion of
the positive and negative aspects of the
grievances, the advantages and disadvantages
and of how well founded the grievances were.
Note that simply identifying the grievances is a
step in answering the question but does not
include an evaluation.
“Analyze the extent to which they were
addressed” involves an examination of the
degree to which the Third Estate faced up to their
grievances.
Evaluate any grievances
(complaints/concerns) with your parents, a
friend, or teacher.
◦ Ex: Curfew, allowance, grade, etc.
Are your grievances + or -?
Are they well founded, is it reasonable to ask
for something different?
How did you confront the person about the
grievance?
◦ Face to face, text, phone, facebook?
Using your previous knowledge what were
some of the Grievances from the 3rd estate
and how did they try and get those
grievances met?
Step 3-Read and relate documents to question
Step 4- Recognize POV (Point of View)

The Grievances of the Third Estate were about
political, economic, and social inequalities
that existed in France prior to the French
Revolution of 1789. The extent to which the
revolutionaries addressed these grievances
ranged from speech and petitions to violence
and finally to political and legal reform.
Form you body in two ways (Must talk about
both in every paragraph)
◦ Groupings of grievances
◦ Extent they were addressed (used in example)
Topic sentence-state what you are talking
about from thesis (start of second paragraph)
◦ Prior to 1782, the revolutionaries addressed their
grievances through various forms of speech and
through petition. (include docs that were forms of
speech or petition and that were grievances about
political, economic, and social inequalities).
Transition sentence to 3rd paragraph: the

demonstrate the strong desire for change in
the beginning stages of the French
Revolution.
Paragraph 3: (Violence)Topic sentence-docstransition sentence
Paragraph 4: (Political and legal reform) Topic
sentence-docs-transition sentence.
Tie whole paper together and state what the
significance was of the French Revolution.
EX: The French Revolution was an event that
was inspired by both the Enlightenment and
the American Revolution. It further promoted
the ideals of liberty and equality, ideals that
today, in America, we sometimes take for
granted. Many people in the world, especially
women, are still struggling to gain both
liberty and equality.
