Read the question first.  \n2. Read the passage.  \n3. Predict the answer in your own words.  \n4. Finally   look at the answer choices and use P.O. E.  \nCommon Traps = Wrong Answers  \n◦ Extreme Language (only, never, always, must)  \n◦ Deceptive Language – familiar words from the text but twisted to say something different  \n◦ Half Right, Half Wrong – a word or two in the middle or the end can make the answer wrong  \n◦ Could Be True – answers that may be true BUT are not in the passage  \nELAR Essay Criteria  \nScoring is done by a COMPUTER based on 6 criteria:  \n1.  Purpose and Focus – One point of view (side) that answers the prompt.  \n2.  Organization and Structure – Present ideas in paragraphs connected by transitions  \n3.  Development and Support – Use concrete, specific examples to support your side.  \n4.  Sentence Variety and Style – Use simple, complex, or compound sentences with strong vocabulary.  \n5.  Mechanical Conventions – Use standard, grammatically correct English – NO slang, cliches, or nonstandard language.  \n6.  Critical Thinking – Think deeply and carefully about the topic.  \nELAR Essay Structure  \nPrompt – A Short Paragraph with a Question  \n◦ Read the passage and make sure you understand the question.  \n◦ Pick a side – it does not matter which one.  \n◦ Find support for your side from:  \n◦ History  \n◦ Literature  \n◦ Current events  \n◦ Personal experiences  \n◦ Construct an introductory paragraph – state your thesis.  \n◦ Construct 2-3 body paragraphs that support your side.  \n◦ Construct a concluding paragraph.  \n◦ Proofread and submit.  \nTSIA Essay Myths  \n􀀀 Whatever works in English class will be fine on the TSIA.
