"Isaac didn't want to sit by the new kid. He'd rather sit all by himself. He didn't want to make any friends. After the teachers handed out the assignments, the new kid leaned over, "Hey, my name is Rocky." Isaac didn't look up fom his textbook. Rocky didn't take Isaac's silence personally. Instead, he stole a glance at the notebook on which Isaac was drawing. Rocky noticed that Isaac was drawing a guitar with skulls on it. Rocky asked politely, "Who's your favorite band?" Isaac ignoredhim. Rocky continued, "My favorite band is The Lords of Death." Issac looked up at him for the first time. "Hello, Rocky, my name is Isaac. I believe that we are going to be great friends."




How did Rocky know the best way to win Isaac's friendship?

Choose the two words that best go with setting.

Plot is the term for the events that take place in a story and how they relate to each other. When we summarize a story we’re usually describing its plot. A good summary of a story's plot includes three main elements: the conflict, which is the disagreement or different drives of the characters or forces in the story, the climax, which is the most exciting point of the story and the resolution, which is how the conflict ends.


Read the following fairy tale.

A young boy named Jack trades his only cow for beans that he’s told are magic. When he brings the beans home, his mother doesn’t believe that they are magic and becomes angry with Jack. Against his mother’s advice, Jack plants the beans. A huge beanstalk grows. Jack climbs it and finds a giant’s house full of treasure. He takes the treasure from the house and runs away as the giant chases him down the beanstalk. Jack reaches the ground and is able to chop down the beanstalk. He keeps the treasure.

Setting is all about “when” and “where.” Location, time of day and weather are all part of a story’s setting. The best setting descriptions often include details that use at least some of the five senses: how a place looks, how it smells, how it sounds, how it feels (that’s called the mood) and maybe--if it’s a setting in a castle with candy walls--how it tastes.



Read the following passage from a story.

It was my first day walking the tightrope at the circus. As I stood on the platform, high above the audience’s heads, I felt a slight, cold breeze from the open flap of the circus tent. Up that high, I could only faintly smell the popcorn and cotton candy for sale down below. I heard the crowd chanting for me to begin, and I stuck one toe out to feel the thin tightrope wire. I swallowed--it felt like I could almost taste my nervousness. I took a deep breath and let the air fill my lungs. I stepped out on to the wire.


Which of the following details contains a description of the story’s setting?

Metaphors make your writing vivid. In this song, the first draft of the story reads: "The night was dark." In the next draft, this sentence was revised: "The night was a cave of darkness." By calling the night "a cave of darkness," the writer makes us imagine a darkness so deep that it is like a cave. That adds a lot more to the story than the simple, literal sentence, "The night was dark."

The parking lot was hot and empty.

Similes and metaphors are figures of speech. That means they don’t use words or phrases literally. Instead, similes and metaphors use language to create feelings and vivid images. Similes and metaphors both make comparisons but they do it in different ways. A simile uses the words "like" or "as" to specify how two things are alike. A metaphor doesn’t use "like" or "as." It states the comparison directly.

As a writer, you always know where to put your thesis--right at the end of your introduction. And as a reader, if you want to get a quick summary of someone's essay before you read it, just look at the thesis.



Read the following introduction to an essay.

Many people depend on schools for safety and for food. Schools can become community centers that give people access to knowledge and teach skills. Access to fresh fruit and vegetables and an understanding of the local environment are important to communities. Access to fresh fruit and vegetables means people can make healthier choices. And awareness of the local environment means that ordinary people can make informed choices about their neighborhoods and towns. For these reasons, schools should consider hosting community gardens.



Based on this paragraph, what is one reason that the author will use to support her argument that schools should host community gardens?

In indirect characterization, the author does not come out and tell us what the character is like. Instead, the author shows the character’s personality through things the character says, does, feels and thinks and the way other characters react to the character.


In the following passage from the book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum, the character Dorothy is talking to another character, the Scarecrow.

Read the passage and then answer the question below.



“No, indeed. I don’t know anything. You see, I am stuffed, so I have no brains at all," [the Scarecrow] answered sadly.

“Oh,” said Dorothy, “I'm awfully sorry for you.”

“Do you think,” he asked, “if I go to the Emerald City with you, that Oz would give me some brains?”

“I cannot tell,” she returned, “but you may come with me, if you like. If Oz will not give you any brains you will be no worse off than you are now.”





Which detail from the passage best shows us that Dorothy is caring and kind?

We break down long division problems one digit at a time, working from left to right.

638 ÷ 4

In this case, we’ll start with the 6, which is in the hundreds place.
We break down long division problems one digit at a time, working from left to right.

First, divide 6 by 4.
Ask yourself, how many times does 4 go into 6?
4 goes into 6 completely 1 time,

🧪 Science - The Birth of Rocks
Mystery 1 - "Could a volcano pop up where you live?"

Direct characterization is when the author tells us directly what the characters are like.
The author may state the character’s traits: “Kareem was a polite, patient boy who always listened to his parents.”

Which of the following is an example of direct characterization?

A character’s traits are different from a character’s feelings. Characters’ feelings, or emotions, are a character’s emotional response to things that happen around them. Unlike character traits, feelings may come and go quickly.

Read the following passage from a story.

Mercy snorted. She should have known better than to challenge Victoria. Of all Mercy’s friends, Victoria talked loudest, ran fastest and took the most risks. She bragged about the time she convinced her older brothers to spend a weekend building her a fort. Mercy liked to call Victoria “Buster.” “Because you are always busting things up,” she laughed. Victoria wore the nickname with pride.

Based on the passage, which of the following is one of Victoria’s traits?
