Which of the sentences in the following paragraph would be emphasized to best convey meaning? Legions of teenagers doodling space robots and anime characters in their notebooks during math class might be surprised to hear that the class they’ve zoned out in is at least as important as their art skills when it comes to a future in making video games. That’s exactly why unique elective courses centered around applying math to create video games can be a dynamic way of firing students up about crunching numbers and dabbling in geometry.

MP3 Players A Problem Say Educators

MP3 players have become a problem at Vince Lombardi Middle School. Many teachers have complained that students are bringing MP3 players to school and attempting to listen to them in class. "The earphones are now so small that students think that we will not notice that they are wearing them," said math teacher Marissa Randall.
According to social studies teacher Geno Ricci, "The students don't think it's a problem. They listen to the MP3 players when they're with their parents and when they're with their friends. As a result, they've begun to think that not paying attention is normal and paying attention is weird!"
Beginning in April, students will no longer be able to bring MP3 players to class or to listen to them in the school during normal school hours. "We are doing this because we want kids to get the best education possible. Some people might think it is an excessive restriction," said Principal Sondra White. "We were slow to react to students bringing cell phones to class. We are not making that mistake twice."

Who were key people involved in the Civil Rights Movement?

Read the passage.

Almost everyone knows “Taps,” the haunting melody played by a military bugler at military and memorial services. This tune has twenty-four solemn notes, one for each hour of the day, and all the notes are part of a single chord.

“Taps” had its beginnings in Europe. It . . . functioned as a kind of curfew call. It warned [soldiers who were late returning to their barracks] that they had only a short time to return to base. Troops who were roaming at liberty needed to report to their officers, or they would be disciplined.

One evening during the Civil War, General Daniel Butterfield, a Union officer, fondly and sympathetically recalled the French tune. Somehow, “Taps” had crossed the ocean. Butterfield made his speech to his comrades, asking those in the group that the melody be played each evening at sundown instead of a bugle named “Extinguish the Lights.” The tune soon spread to the Confederate army, and it was even played at the funeral of Confederate General Stonewall Jackson.

These days, “Taps” no longer symbolizes a curfew call. Instead, it functions as a solemn farewell. When its twenty-four notes ring out at a state occasion, mellow and true, they often bring tears to the eyes of the spectators in attendance.
What best describes the type of organizational structure used in this passage?


A. order of importance

B. chronological order

C. spatial order

Because the SnapShot computer application boasts such high numbers of users, I believe our school should allow our teachers to teach lessons using this widely loved photo app.

Conclusion paragraph:

As stated earlier, students will be more enthusiastic about math or science lessons when using a popular computer application to complete projects or homework. Because our school recently added a computer lab, all students would have easy access to the application. Yes, SnapShot should be used in our school.
Which statement best explains the effectiveness of the conclusion paragraph?

Environmental Heroes: Anyone Can Be One Worksheet
Part 1

Instructions: Select an organization that works to protect some element of the environment (ocean, land, trees, animals, etc.). Visit the organization’s website, and read the “About Us” section to learn more about the organization. Search to find the following information and record your findings in the chart below:

Essential Questions

The Answers

What is the name of the organization?



When were they founded?



Why were they founded? (This information may be found in an “Our Mission” section of the website.)



What do they actually do?



What are their goals? (This information may be found in an “Our Vision” section of the website.)



Why is their work important?




When you record information from research, write it in your own words. Do not copy the words from your source. It is easy to get a thought in your own words! First, read the paragraph. Next, explain aloud what you have just read without referring to the original text. What you say is what you should record in the chart above.

Part 2

Now that you have completed some research, you have a job! Answer the question: How has your selected organization helped the environment?

Write a five to seven sentence informational paragraph about the important work of the organization you have selected. Use the information you recorded in the chart above to help you write your paragraph to be featured on a webpage entitled “Environmental Heroes: Anyone Can Be One.”


All information should be in your own words. No portion of your paragraph should have words from the source you researched.


Part 3

Create TWO different formats that would be featured with your paragraph on a webpage entitled “Environmental Heroes: Anyone Can Be One.” Information that might be appropriate to incorporate may include (but is not limited to):

What can the average citizen do to help your organization’s cause?
Why is the organization’s cause important?
How has the organization made a difference?
Now, think about how you can communicate this information in different formats. Maps, organizer charts, graphs, pictures, hand drawn illustrations, audio, and video can be effective. Make sure you include the TWO media.

Help! timed test!

Danny's bellowing voice carried across the field. "No! you need to pass the ball! Stop cradling it and pass!"

Danny was the team captain of the lacrosse team. He was one of the best players in the league. He was good, but he could be malicious. That morning, my playing technique was taking the brunt of Danny's harsh criticism.

"You really need to learn to pass better, Finn. you're letting the team down!"

Practice ended, and as Danny strode swiftly back toward the changing rooms, I hung my head and looked down at the green grass of the field. At the start of practice, the lush, green grass had made me smile. I relished being outside and playing lacrosse with my teammates. Sure, many of them were better than me, but I enjoyed the game and being part of a team. I was always the one cheering the loudest for my friends when they threw the ball across the goal line. I wished Danny would cheer for us instead of shouting callous things. It was starting to ruin the game so much for me that I was thinking of quitting.

How does the author prepare the reader for the rest of the story in the introduction?

1. He introduces Danny as a kind character and Finn as a mean character.
2. He introduces Danny as a mean character and Finn as a kind character.
3. He introduces the main character as someone who criticizes too much.
4. He introduces the main character as team captain of a lacrosse team.
