In addition to helping writers plan and respond to a prompt, the RUPR strategy can be useful on a variety of short and extended response test questions.
R = Read the prompt (or question) TWICE
U = Underline the FAT-P (or important information)
P = Plan your writing (or answer)
R = Reread your plan (or answer). Ask yourself, "Did I accurately respond to all the parts of the prompt (or question)? Does my writing (or work) meet the specific purpose? Is my response on topic?"
Students, when we're using the Super RUPR to help us in an on-demand writing assessment, we think about the "FAT-P"? What do the letters in this acronym stand for? What do these words mean? How can the Super RUPR help you on other tests?
