Loaded Question Expectations 7C LA 2010-2011
What is a Loaded Question? • Literary Analysis: writing about your reading • One BIG question you will answer about something you have read • Use a PCR book or whole-class text • Multi-paragraph typed response • Complete 2 per marking period • Different choices for each LQ
Loaded Questions will be assessed… • By 3 Focus Correction Areas (FCAs) • 2 out of the 3 FCA’s will concern the focus, content, organization, or styleof your response • 1 FCA will always be about a convention • LQ = Type 3 (two drafts) • Approximately 50 points
LQ helpful hints… • Answering a LQ is very similar to a “five-musts” response but nothing like giving a summary. • Keep the book at your side as you answer the question, so you can easily refer to quotes and page numbers in your response.
LQ Writing Checklist: • Restate the question in the first sentence of your response. • Make three points in your response. • Support the three points with specific details and relevant direct quotes. • Conclude with a final sentence that wraps up your thoughts about the question. • Author and title should be stated multiple times throughout the response. • Focus on answering the question; do not write a summary. • Character names should be used. * Five-must criteria
Two ways to access an LQ: • Visit the paper trays on the window shelves. Attach your typed paragraphs to the prompt. • Upload the Loaded Questions prompts from my teacher website and type your responses there. Print out a copy or email me your completed paper.
Final notes about LQs… • Loaded Questions may only be written about a book that you have finished reading. • Loaded Questions may only be written about Just Right or Challenge reads. • Late LQs result in the immediate lowering of your Qualities of a Learner grade.
