RAP is an acronym that stands for the following steps:

1. Read a paragraph.

2. Ask yourself, "What were the main ideas and details of this paragraph?"

3. Put the main idea and details in your own words.

◦ previewing a text.
◦ activating background knowledge.
◦ recalling the main ideas and specific facts of materials they read.
◦ working cooperatively.
