Examples of a 2 point response:

  • I think the tiger came out of the door because the king’s daughter was “jealous” and she didn’t want to see the man she loved “have a look of delight” as he met the lady.
  • I think the lady came out of the door because the princess doesn’t want the man she loves to meet the cruel fangs of the tiger and she knew her father would never let her date a king’s servant.

Examples of a 1 point response:

  • I think the tiger came out of the door because the story says that the princess was as “arrogant and proud” as her father and she would never want everyone to see the man that she loved marry someone else.
  • I think the lady came out of the door because the princess wouldn’t want to see the man she loved shredded by the tiger.

Examples of a 3 Point Response:

  • The mood of the story is exciting. There was a rumble and someone yelled “Cave in!” Terror flashed across Haley’s usually confident face.
  • The mood of the story is scary. She screamed in pain as one landed on her foot and “I can’t move! Help me!” She cried.

Examples of a 2 Point Response:

  • The mood of the passage is exciting. I know this because of the sentence “She pulled with all her strength, wincing as pain shot through her foot.”
  • The mood of the passage is adventurous. A fierce bolt of lightning interrupted Haley’s sentence.

  • The mood of the story is exciting.
