What is using your context honestly?Show answer
The rubric values your own perspective, but it must serve the text. A useful test: after you mention your own experience, does the sentence circle back to the text? If a paragraph about a refugee narrative spends three sentences on your holiday and never returns to the narrative, you have lost the thread. Use your context as a lens, then look through it at the text.
