Check Mark Method How can you be sure you have answered all of the items asked for on a….. short answer or extended response question?

Number 1 Remind yourself of R.I.C.A. (restate the question, use information (support), answer in complete sentences, and answer all parts!

Next…. Read the question for the first time. Go back to the question for a second look. Read the question one sentence at a time

Most IMPORTANTLY! Every time you are TOLD/ASKED to do something, make a checkmark in the margin of your paper. Re-read the question for a 3rd time to make sure you didn’t miss anything.
