More About the RACES Writing Strategy:

 

The RACES writing strategy is an acronym that stands for:

 

  • RESTATE: Students begin by restating the question in their own words. This helps ensure they understand what is being asked of them.
  • ANSWER: Next, students provide a clear and concise answer to the question. This should directly address the main point or question being asked.
  • CITE EVIDENCE: This step requires students to provide examples from the text to support their answer. It’s important for students to back up their responses by citing text evidence.
  • EXPLAIN: After citing text evidence, students explain how the examples they provided supports their response. This step encourages them to think critically and demonstrate a deeper understanding of the topic.
  • SUMMARIZE: Finally, students summarize their response by rephrasing their answer and briefly restating the key points. This reinforces the main point.

 

The RACES strategy is a valuable tool for teaching text evidence to students. It helps students respond to reading comprehension questions by providing evidence from the text to support their answers.
