  1. Answering Reading Open-Ended Questions

  2. The first bullet is usually "close to the text" / to apply what you know.

  3. The second bullet is usually "beyond the text" / to extend what you know. Include a personal experience.

  4. Reword the question to create your topic sentence. Use pieces of the statement and the bullet question.  This helps you to focus and lets the scorer know what you are writing about.

  5. Frame out your answer using several examples from the passage.  It is always good to correctly work quotes into your response.  You should write one paragraph for each bullet for a full response.

  6. Close your open-ended response with a concluding sentence similar to your topic sentence.

  7. Even if you can’t answer completely, make an attempt.  These questions are scored from 0-4 points. A partial answer can earn you some points.

  8. Assessing your response • 1. Put a star next to each paragraph – you should have two stars. 2. Highlight the topic sentence. • 3. Highlight support from the passage. • 4. Did you go beyond and use a personal experience? If so, highlight that example. 5. Highlight the concluding statement.
