Description

Written Elaboration:  Answering Questions 

I developed this printable handout after the educational supervisor at my high school, for whom I have tremendous respect, shared her insight with me: perhaps some of our language impaired students are not comprehensively answering their homework questions because they don’t know what amount of content is sufficient, not because they’re not able to be comprehensive.  This handout includes a discussion on the importance of elaborating and a rating scale for different answers to the same question.  Middle school and high school students learn to distinguish between extra words and extra meaning, and learn to more fully answer homework and test questions.
