  11. Example OER responses . . . • Look at the passage called “Breakfast in Virginia” • Write the OER question that you will see on the next slide on your paper.

  12. Literary Open-Ended Question:3. What is the primary conflict in “Breakfast in Virginia”? Explain your answer and support it with evidence from the selection. Underneath the question you have just copied, write a definition of “conflict.” (Remember, during the TAKS test, you can look up definitions of terms, if you need to.)

  13. 4. Answer the question. • Use the “I Say, It Says” Strategy or (A.C.E.) to plan your response. • After you plan, write out your response IN COMPLETE SENTENCES! • Make sure you answer the question in your own words and include a quote from the story to support your answer.
