Answer:

a father (intelligent, patient, an inventive storyteller); his five-year-old son Michael (intelligent, crafty, addicted to stories); and a story.It is a Wolf Story, which begins one night at bedtime and is spun into soap opera proportions over subsequent bedtimes and Sunday excursions to the park and the beach, in satisfying snatches. The melodrama unfolds as Waldo (ferocious but foppish wolf) labors to abduct Rainbow (resourceful but saucy hen) and make her his dinner. Enter Jimmy Tractorwheel, the farmer's sturdy son; add inspirational plot changes by Michael and imaginative leaps (even in traffic) by the storytelling father, and Waldo is brought to a well-adjusted end. At least this time. For now. Until the next Wolf Story. . .

Write a ONE SENTENCE summary of what you think the theme of the poem is. What point did she want to get across to our nation?

"The Hill We Climb" by Amanda Gorman

When day comes we ask ourselves,
where can we find light in this never-ending shade?
The loss we carry,
a sea we must wade
We've braved the belly of the beast
We've learned that quiet isn't always peace
And the norms and notions
of what just is
Isn’t always just-ice
And yet the dawn is ours
before we knew it
Somehow we do it
Somehow we've weathered and witnessed
a nation that isn’t broken
but simply unfinished
We the successors of a country and a time
Where a skinny Black girl
descended from slaves and raised by a single mother
can dream of becoming president
only to find herself reciting for one
And yes we are far from polished
far from pristine
but that doesn’t mean we are
striving to form a union that is perfect
We are striving to forge a union with purpose
To compose a country committed to all cultures, colors, characters and
conditions of man
And so we lift our gazes not to what stands between us
but what stands before us
We close the divide because we know, to put our future first,
we must first put our differences aside
We lay down our arms
so we can reach out our arms
to one another
We seek harm to none and harmony for all
Let the globe, if nothing else, say this is true:
That even as we grieved, we grew
That even as we hurt, we hoped
That even as we tired, we tried
That we’ll forever be tied together, victorious
Not because we will never again know defeat
but because we will never again sow division
Scripture tells us to envision
that everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree
And no one shall make them afraid
If we’re to live up to our own time
Then victory won’t lie in the blade
But in all the bridges we’ve made
That is the promised glade
The hill we climb
If only we dare
It's because being American is more than a pride we inherit,
it’s the past we step into
and how we repair it
We’ve seen a force that would shatter our nation
rather than share it
Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy
And this effort very nearly succeeded
But while democracy can be periodically delayed
it can never be permanently defeated
In this truth
in this faith we trust
For while we have our eyes on the future
history has its eyes on us
This is the era of just redemption
We feared at its inception
We did not feel prepared to be the heirs
of such a terrifying hour
but within it we found the power
to author a new chapter
To offer hope and laughter to ourselves
So while once we asked,
how could we possibly prevail over catastrophe?
Now we assert
How could catastrophe possibly prevail over us?
We will not march back to what was
but move to what shall be
A country that is bruised but whole,
benevolent but bold,
fierce and free
We will not be turned around
or interrupted by intimidation
because we know our inaction and inertia
will be the inheritance of the next generation
Our blunders become their burdens
But one thing is certain:
If we merge mercy with might,
and might with right,
then love becomes our legacy
and change our children’s birthright
So let us leave behind a country
better than the one we were left with
Every breath from my bronze-pounded chest,
we will raise this wounded world into a wondrous one
We will rise from the gold-limbed hills of the west,
we will rise from the windswept northeast
where our forefathers first realized revolution
We will rise from the lake-rimmed cities of the midwestern states,
we will rise from the sunbaked south
We will rebuild, reconcile and recover
and every known nook of our nation and
every corner called our country,
our people diverse and beautiful will emerge,
battered and beautiful
When day comes we step out of the shade,
aflame and unafraid
The new dawn blooms as we free it
For there is always light,
if only we’re brave enough to see it
If only we’re brave enough to be it

Answers

Answer:

the theme of this poem is injustice, and the point she wanted to get across our nation is slavery.

Explanation:

I tried my best!

hope this helps and you can rephrase the sentence

I think the point she is trying to get across is that we should have pride in our country but also not deny that we have problems and we can fix them together rather than argue and get violent about it. So many things that shouldn’t be about politics ends up in one party and those things can end up dividing a family or friends. I think she also points out that we are the ones ripping the country apart and instead of only listing to one opinion we should hear all the others out and then come to a solution. (I’m not sure if this is completely right but I hope it helped)

Read the passage.

Mom thinks that I’m a chronic slob. My room has always been a mess because I never clean it. Mom nags me to straighten up my room, but I like it the way it is. It may seem like a mess to her, but the way that I have my room organized makes perfect sense to me. I’ve compiled a mental list of the room’s furnishings. My desk chair holds my dirty clothes. The dresser in the corner is piled with my school books. One side of the bed is covered with clean towels and laundry that I never fold or put away. I always know where to find my things, so I don’t think it’s messy at all!

25 points for ELA question (please answer both parts)

Part A

Based on "'Equal Justice Under Law': Thurgood Marshall," what can the reader infer about how segregation affected the self-image of African American children?


It was damaging because they were wrongly convinced that it was preferable to be white.

Children of different races played together outside of school, which boosted self-image.

It was dangerous because it caused negative feelings toward themselves and others.

Segregation only occurred in the South, so it had little effect on most African American children.
Question 2
Part B

What evidence from the text best supports the answer in Part A?


"Anything from a water fountain to a movie theater or public park might have a sign saying 'Whites Only.'"

"The facilities for black Americans, the Court said, simply had to be as good as those for whites—'separate but equal.'"

"The children said the white dolls were 'nice' and 'pretty.' The brown dolls, they said, were 'ugly' and 'dirty.'"

Dr. King frequently used references to mountains in his speeches, and he is often equated with a character from history/literature. Who and how is this relevant *8th grade reading*

Answers

Answer:

This is relevant because he use these references to express different problems that should've changed. Even though he was killed his words are heard throughout literature and history book. He wanted change and his words to be heard. He wanted his words to be agreed upon. Now, we hear about him because the hatred and anger from the past was like a blind-fold. We couldn't see the problem of which Dr.King spoke of or fix it. But, now we are the future who takes a stand against it. That's the reason why it is relevant.
