     Mini-Lesson:  What is an Guide Paper?                

• Guide Papers
  These are just good and bad examples of student responses to a test question.
• By analyzing guide papers, you can better understand how you will be graded.
• If you know how you will be graded, you have a better chance of receiving more points on the NYS ELA.

Valid Inference
a true and logical conclusion you have about a passage.

Example:  I think the author's point of view is that life can be challenging.
