How to Complete a Writing Response in RAC Format

RAC is an acronym used to help writers organize their writing and use evidence from a text to support their answers.

When conducting a written response, the writer should:

The example below is a response written in RAC format.

Prompt: Use context clues to determine the meaning of the word “bogs” as it is used in the paragraph below and explain why carnivorous plants can live there. Explain your answer by citing evidence from the text.

Carnivorous plants can live all over the earth. But they are very rare and usually live in bogs and swamps. They like this type of damp, wet climate. They are common in swamps because the soil lacks nutrients. Bogs also have lots of bugs and are very damp. As long as there is plenty of water, sunlight, and insects, the plants will grow.

The word “bogs” refers to an environment that is damp or wet like a swamp.

Because the environment has plenty of water, carnivorous plants can live there.

In the paragraph, the author carnivorous plants “like this type of damp, wet

climate.”

Non-Cooking Play-dough:

1 cup flour1/3 cup salt1/2 cup water2 teaspoons canola oil

Directions: Mix the dry ingredients first, then slowly pour in the wet ingredients. Knead until smooth and store in a covered container. If desired, add a few drops of food coloring to the wet ingredients before adding to they dry.

Cooking Play-dough:

2 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 cup salt 4 teaspoons cream of tartar 2 cups lukewarm water 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (coconut oil works too) Food coloring - optional Ziplock bags

Directions:Stir together the flour, salt and cream of tartar in a large pot. Next add the water and oil. If you’re only making one color, add in the color now as well. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue stirring until the dough has thickened and begins to form into a ball. Remove from heat and place inside a ziplock bag or place onto wax paper. Allow to cool slightly and then knead until smooth. If you’re adding colors after, divide into balls (for how many colors you want) and then add the dough into ziplock bags. Start with about 5 drops of color and add more to brighten it. Knead the dough while inside the bag so it doesn’t stain your hands. Once it’s all mixed together you’re read to PLAY. Store the play dough inside the bags once done to keep soft. Keeps for up to 3 months.

Fun ChallengeWith your play doh and some toothpicks, create as many 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional shapes as you can. Use the toothpicks for the sides, and the play doh as the vertices. Have fun!
