ACE Method: Writing a GREAT Short Answer Response!

Remember  Your space for answering is limited, so clear, concise answers with appropriate textual evidence will receive the best scores.  Use: Answer Answer Cite Cite Elaborate/Explain Elaborate/Explain

Begin by:  Restating and A nswering the question asked in the prompt.  Then C ite textual evidence (return to the reading and find at lease one quote direct or indirect), which supports your answer.directindirect  Finally, E xplain and E laborate on your answer and the textual evidence you have provided.

Remember  A good response will carefully analyze the text, offer textual evidence from the piece or pieces that will directly support your answer and will explain how this evidence supports your answer.

 Direct Quote- A direct quote is a quote in which you copy an author's words directly - word for word. Direct quotes will be surrounded by quotation marks.  For Example: "I couldn't laugh; I couldn't applaud; it filled me with bitterness to have others do it and to have people make a hero of Hicks and the people around him" (659).

 Indirect Quote - An indirect quote is a quote in which you paraphrase - put into your own words - what the author is saying.  For Example: Twain was unable to laugh or applaud, because he was so angry that Hicks could be mesmerized and he could not (659).
