  2. What is Brain and Book? • Brain and Book is an easy way for you to remember how to answer an open ended question.

  3. What is an open ended question? • An open ended question is a question that asks for YOU to come up with the answer and does not give you possible answers to select from (Multiple Choice).

  4. Ok…So, what is this Brain and Book thing again? • Again, Brain and Book is an easy way for you to remember how to answer an open ended question. • Brain = Idea • Book = Text evidence to support the Idea

  5.

THINK OF THEM AS BROTHERS!! THEY ARE RELATED AND EVERYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO TELL THAT THEY ARE RELATED!!

  9. Let’s Practice!! Please answer the following questions using Brain and Book. You are going to need your story, “Priscilla and the Wimps”. • When the author uses the words “Never mind his name. Gang member’s don’t need names. They’ve got group identity.” What was the intended impact on the reader? • What is the best summary of the section of “Priscilla and the Wimps” that begins “Except there was this one girl named Priscilla Roseberry.” and ends with, “If there was anybody who didn’t notice Klutter’s Kobra’s, it was Priscilla.”? Highlight these quotes in your story, so they will stand out to you.
