The ABC Reading Structure

[Put Your Name at the top of the Response.]

A Title – Entitle Your Response.

Basic Passage - Choose a passage: sentence or lines (no more than three) which include a

central meaning. This passage should connect with the title.

Correlate – Write about how the passage applies to you, to someone you know, to a group or to society. Here are some questions that might help you. See what connections you can make and explore:

• Are there any passages in the reading that you, because of your life experience, are especially able to understand and appreciate? Write about one of those passages and show how it relates to your experience.

• Choose a passage from the reading, and tell what it helps explain about an experience you have known. After you have said as much as you can, consider this: does the passage exhaust the meaning of the experience, account for the experience you have in mind?

• Would a person who accepted this person’s ideas choose the same paths in life that you have chosen or that you have seen others choose? How would the ideas for this reading alter your life or the life of someone you know well?

Are the writer’s ideas useful to a person in a certain lifestyle or profession? What difference would these ideas make for someone living that lifestyle or practicing that profession?
