Copy Activity*


Activity Overview

In this activity, students will be provided a question or prompt to answer using textual evidence. Examining text evidence will help students make connections and enable readers to pinpoint important parts of the story.

The prompt here is, “How does Brady overcome challenges?”

The three examples provided include:


  1. Determination: "I kept on with the CPR. I knew I couldn't stop."
  2. Thinks about this training: "What do I do? What do I do? I was asking myself. What would Carl do?"
  3. Remains calm: "I did not think about anything else as I did this. All I was doing was counting and pushing and breathing and praying inside that Ben would start breathing."
