Reading Response Stems

I use APE (Answer it. Prove it. Explain it.) to help children structure their responses to include supporting evidence, and it’s worked so well for me over the past few years. I just stick these bubbles up on my whiteboard while we’re working on inferential and evaluative questions. The blue bubbles are for answer it, purple for prove it and pink for explain it.

You can download my free Reading Response Stems resource below. If my free resources, posts and book reviews have helped you in some small way, it would be lovely if you could support me by buying me a coffee, or a book to read my baby Adaline. Please don’t feel like you have to though!
