5.RL.1: Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.

6.RL.1: Cite textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
6.RL.2: Determine a theme or central idea of a text and how it is conveyed through particular details; provide a summary of the text distinct from personal opinions or judgments.
COMMON CORE ANCHOR STANDARDS FOR WRITING GRADES 4-6:
4.W.9.a: Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research. Apply grade 4 Reading standards to literature.
5.W.9 a: Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research. Apply grade 5 Reading standards to literature.

♥ The organizer for writing a 3 paragraph response to literature included in this kit is useful when introducing the skill--worth 10 points for easy scoring.
The 3 paragraph organizer is followed by a combination checklist/score sheet for the student and a peer editor to complete before turning the draft in for an initial score from the teacher. I recommend requiring students to rewrite their essay at least twice before recording a final grade.
THE 3 PARAGRAPH ORGANIZER works best with shorter literary works and can be used in class or as homework for additional practice.
♥ Distribute the handy RESPONSE TO LITERATURE TIPS to illustrate for your students how to choose specific details and make clear connections that support their analysis of the text.
♥ Two versions of graphic organizers for writing a 5 paragraph response to literature are included, each worth 20 points for easy scoring.
THE 5 PARAGRAPH ORGANIZERS work well for both short and longer literary works.
The first version is meant to be used for a first rough draft. It is a roomier format, especially beneficial for those students who require more space to get their thoughts onto paper.
Each paragraph of this organizer is followed by a checklist and a separate score sheet for the student and a peer editor to complete before turning the draft in for an initial score from the teacher.
The second 5 paragraph organizer includes the same information in a lined format, similar to writing on composition paper. This organizer is useful to use for a second draft, along with the two page student friendly rubric that requires students to go line by line, closely examining their essay for each of the required components bulleted in kid friendly terms on the rubric.
Each 5 paragraph organizer is structured to require students to provide 3 separate evidences from the text, explanations of how the evidence supports their interpretation of theme, and a connection (text to text, self, or world)—one for each of the three body paragraphs—making for a more in-depth analysis than required on the 3 paragraph organizer.
♥ Use the exemplary 3 and 5 paragraph essays provided to model the type and quality of writing students are expected to produce.
