  1. OAA Extended Response/Short Answer

  2. Before Reading the Question • Extended Response/Short Answer questions contain KEYWORDS and expect an ANSWER FOR EACH ONE. • Keyword examples: identify, describe, explain, compare, determine, list, draw, graph, give details, etc… (ALL of the science action verbs)

  3. Before Reading the Question • Special Keywords: DESCRIBE, EXPLAIN AND COMPARE • Require more depth and DETAIL • Worth TWO points since there is partial credit • For example, if a question has only three marked keywords while it is worth four points, then there are TWO keywords and ONE special keyword that requires more attention.

  4. As You Read the Question • When reading the question, MARK ALL keywords. If there are fewer marked keywords than the number of points, the special keywords need extra ATTENTION. • For example, instead of a quick description, a full and detailed description is needed.

  5. Types of Extended Response Questions • The most common combinations of question types are: • 1. Four Keywords • 2. Two Special Keywords for One Subject • 3. One Special Keyword for Two Subjects • 4. Two Keywords on Two Subjects

  6. 1. Four Keywords

  7. 2. Two Special Keywords for One Subject

  8. 3. One Special Keyword for Two Subjects

  9. 4. Two Keywords on Two Subjects

  10. **Extended Response Reminders** • Read the question carefully and completely • Underline each KEYWORD (action verbs). • Think of examples and details for each “describe, explain and compare” question. • Often the difference between a score of 2 and 4 is the LACK OF DETAILS OR SUPPORT for each of these special keywords

  11. 8 Most Often Used Keywords
