The best way to begin an answer for extended or constructed response is to

• completely come up with your own sentence, not thinking about what the prompt is asking.

• use exact words from the text.

• use words from the question/prompt to help you begin your answer.

• summarize the text.

Using words from the question or prompt helps to directly address what is being asked, making your answer clearer and more relevant. This approach sets a strong foundation for your response.
