write essay using RACE easy to explain for students with SLD

This resource focuses on teaching students the RACE strategy for constructing structured responses to open-ended questions. The acronym RACE stands for Restate, Answer, Cite Evidence, and Explain. It guides students through the process of restating the question, providing a clear answer, citing evidence from the text, and explaining how that evidence supports their answer. The guide includes step-by-step examples, sentence frames, and independent practice opportunities aimed at reinforcing the understanding and application of the RACE method. Through various exercises, students learn to articulate their thoughts clearly, enhance their writing skills, and effectively use textual evidence in their responses.
