Each student has been given a student model to follow when responding to A.C.T.-like writing prompts. He/she has also been given a rubric with the requirements for a "6." Some focus points for the 5-point essay response (which is A.C.T. like writing):
1. determine thesis; place at end of intro.
2. determine concluding statement; place as last statement...state your thesis in a fresh way.
3. have 3 points to support, defend, justify thesis; place as topic sentences at the beginning of body paragraphs...these body paragraphs should EACH be a reason WHY for your thesis.
4. include points of proof in introduction and conclusion
5. follow the 6 rubric (clarity, coherence, parameters)
