This resource is designed to help students master the ACECES writing framework for constructing well-supported written responses. The ACECES acronym stands for Answer, Cite, Explain, Cite, Explain, and Summarize. The document outlines clear learning objectives and success criteria, providing a breakdown of each component of the ACECES framework. It incorporates a reading passage from 'The Gift of the Magi' to illustrate how to analyze text and support claims with evidence. The resource also includes sentence starters and a worked example to guide students through the writing process, as well as steps for independent practice and self-assessment to ensure comprehension and skill development.
