The RAECC framework stands for Restate, Answer, Explain, Conclude, and Check. It provides a structured approach to writing short responses. Start by restating the question in your own words (R). Clearly answer the question upfront (A). Then, provide at least three supporting details to explain your reasoning using text-based evidence (E). Conclude with a strong statement connecting your answer to real-life situations (C). Finally, review your response to ensure completeness and clarity (C). This method enhances your writing and critical thinking skills.

RAECC Writing a short response
RAECC • R-Restate the question or prompt • A-Answer the question • E-Explain using at least three supporting details • C-Conclusion/Connection • C-Check your response
R – Restate the question Always begin your paragraph by restating/paraphrasing (saying in your own words) the question that has been asked.
A – Answer the question Let the reader know what your answer is to the question. Don’t make the reader guess what you are thinking!
E – Explain your answer using at least three details All paragraphs and short responses must have at least three details, using text based evidence (TBE), to explain your reasoning. Show how intelligent you are!
C– Conclusion/Connection Now that you have shown the reader your reasoning, conclude the paragraph with a powerful statement, with a connection to real life.
C – Check your response You’re not done! Check to make sure that you have included everything needed to create a powerful paragraph.
