ELA Practice

Students needs to write more than 1 sentence in response to these prompts.  These are intended to be answered with a paragraph/essay.  They need to use the text to support their answers.

One way for students to show that they are directly quoting, paraphrasing, or providing evidence is by using sentence stems.
