Here's my suggestion about how to write a DBQ. First you read the question and look through all of the documents. You've done that, so that's good. Next you come up with your major points. Once you have picked out your points, divide up your documents between your points: decide where you're going to use each document. Now you've basically made an outline.
Now is when the actual writing of the essay comes in. I always start with my intro. I start off broadly and the narrow down until I'm to my thesis. I'd tell you the rest, but I'm a bit overworked at the moment.
I will however direct you to GoPunchRocks "Guide to Writing an Effective Essay" thread which is very helpful. This is just where I differ from his view. I also posted some there too on DBQ writing. Here's the link:

When I had to do a DBQ for my class, I found it a lot easier after looking at the documents and finding the essential meaning to it. Jot it down on a page and make conections between them. After that, the essay writing should be a bit easier wince you know what to write on. Plus, they'll think youre smart with all the connection :) (j/k, no idea if they would think that)
