Grade 6 Main Idea CCSS: CCRA.R.2, RI.6.2

The harmless hognose snake is a champion bluffer. When this snake is threatened, it hisses and acts as if it will bite. If you don't run away, the hognose snake "plays dead." It rolls over on its back, wiggling around as if it's in distress. Then it "dies" with its mouth open and tongue hanging out. If you turn it on its stomach, the snake will roll over on its back again.

This passage is mainly about...

where the hognose snake is found.
what things frighten the hognose snake.
how dangerous the hognose snake is.

Write your own summary for the following passage.

Being a clown isn’t all fun and games. Rodeo clowns expose themselves to great danger every time they perform. When cowboys dismount or are bucked off of bulls at riding competitions, rodeo clowns jump in front of the bulls and motion wildly to get their attention. In this way rodeo clowns provide an alternate target, and in doing so protect the rider. So you see, sometimes clowning around can be serious business.

Read the following passage and choose the best summary.

What’s that humming sound? Could it be hummingbird, the only bird capable of backward flight? Hummingbirds have many unique flight habits that distinguish them from other birds. Most birds flap their wings up and down to fly, but the hummingbird moves its wings forward and backward very rapidly in a figure eight pattern. This allows the hummingbird to hover in position, fly upside down, and move about very rapidly. And while other birds have to push off with their feet to begin flying, and work their ways up to their top speeds, the hummingbird can both start flying at maximum speed and stop flying instantaneously. After you’ve seen a hummingbird in flight, it’s unlikely that you’ll mistake them for another bird.

Hummingbirds fly in neat and interesting ways.
Hummingbird's flight is unlike other birds because it is much faster.
The hummingbird is unique because it is able to hover in position, fly upside down, and move about rapidly. Other birds have to push off and work their ways up to top speeds.But the hummingbird can both start flying at maximun speeds and stop flying instantaneously.

The records in the computer help the owners learn which goods sell well.

This passage is mainly about...

how the product codes are developed.
how the product-code system is effective.

Shaquille O'Neal is happy, and it's not because he made a free throw.
The basketball star is thrilled that the National Basketball Association
(NBA) brought back the leather ball on January 1. For the past few months, players had to use a ball covered with a synthetic, or human-made, material. Many players, including O'Neal, complained the plastic coated basketball was a bad decision. They said the new ball didn't bounce as
well as the leather ball. The new ball also cut their hands. "The new ball is terrible," O'Neal, the Miami Heat center, says.

What is the main idea of the paragraph?

All basketballs bounce the same.
Plastic basketballs are not good for payers hands.
Shaquille O'neal is a happy basketball player.
Players prefer a leather ball to a plastic one.

Grade 9 Theme CCSS: CCRA.R.2, RL.9-10.2

"Sea Fever"
by John Masefield
Read the selection, and then answer the questions that follow.

I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way, where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.

What is the theme, or message, the author expresses in this poem?

Hard work never hurt anyone.
The simple things in life may be the best.
Everyone should learn to sail.
There should be freedom for all people.
