Description
With the shift to Common Core standards, I found that students were required to not only work math problems, but explain them as well. My students struggled with how to create an organized structure for these writing responses. This is when I came up with RAPS. I have seen multiple strategies that help students remember what to include in their writing responses. This one works well for my students, and I hope you find it useful in your classroom as well!
I decided to include “spelling, capitalization, and punctuation” as a motivating reminder for students to write correctly. Whether or not you assess this as a math grade is completely up to you! Personally, I like to encourage writing across the curriculum.

Very helpful resource. Thank you for making it available and affordable.
My students were able to work through this activity and learn from it. It was easy to use and to follow for both me and my students. Highly recommend this resource.
This may seem elementary, however, as I review with junior high students for state testing I am using this resource weekly. Following these steps on constructed responses can make the difference in a notice and apprentice or apprentice and proficient on end of the year testing!
helpful
Thanks!
This is good for students to practice writing and it forces them to slow down instead of rushing through every math problem.
Great!
This is great! Loved that I was able to use RAPS for ELA and math, made it easy for the kids.
