Success Criteria for Test
“I will do well if I am able to…”
I will provide evidence for your answers.
I will use and identify explicit details and implicit clues in your answers.
I will connect to prior knowledge. (Why do we do this? To help you to better understand the events in the story or ones that may
occur.)
I will use the details in the plot, setting, characters etc. to make some predictions and inferences.
I will demonstrate clearly that I understand what the questions were asking me in my answers provided.
I will analyze the story by taking it apart, such as the plot, setting and characterization of the characters.
I will synthesize the story by pulling all your ideas and thoughts about the story together and making concluding statements. Such as,
in the short story “I Hungry Hannah Cassandra Glen “, why the two children in the story attend a funeral for the purpose of eating
well. You may conclude that Mr. Francher’s character did not change in that he provided food to Hannah when he was alive and
during his passing he still provided food at his funeral.
