All of your sources should be correctly cited, using the MLA format for in-text citations and providing a works-cited list

         Videogames can be useful for in-class or online teaching. Using video games in class can be beneficial to the teachers and students alike. Teachers can briefly explain the unit, and students --using the videogame of their teacher's choice-- can click on different options to simplify the topic to their learning level so they understand the material.  Video games can be used as a learning tool, but also can motive the students aswell.

For sources, I would check out Newsela and maybe a few sites that end in .org, or .edu. you should still fact-check it, and make sure your information lines up.

Can someone edit this please!!!!

My favorite color is yellow, not many people know why. They think it is because it is bright. But no it is not just for that reason. One of my favorite people has this saying ¨Today is a good day to have a good day¨ And I have no idea why I think of yellow when I think of that but I do! And I also love the summer time, like it might just beat volleyball. When I think of summer I think of big smiles, bonfires, long nights, days out on the lake, tan lines like nobody's business, sunflowers, lemonade, pigtails, ice cream etc. When I think of those things it makes me happy and excited. Which reminds me of yellow, again I don't know why. Yellow, yellow, yellow :)

Read the passage.

A Flag with 50 Stars

The first American flag to have red and white stripes and white stars on a blue field was flown in 1776, shortly after the United States declared its independence from Great Britain. Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag. There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes. However, we know for a fact that the first flag to have 50 stars—the one we have today—was designed by a high school student.

In 1958, Bob Heft was a 17-year-old student at Lancaster High School in Ohio. At that time, the United States had only 48 states but was on the verge of accepting two more: Alaska and Hawaii. The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly? This was the question that Bob’s history teacher posed to the class.

The teacher gave the students an assignment: design a flag with 50 stars. Bob spent hours in the attic of his house, cutting up a 48-star flag and rearranging the stars until they fit just right. He was pleased with his solution to the problem, but his teacher found it less than perfect and gave him a B minus. Outraged, Bob told his teacher that he was going to send his design to his member of Congress, Walter Moeller. His teacher replied that if Bob’s design was accepted as the new flag, he would be more than happy to change his grade to an A.

A year later, Bob had graduated and was working as a draftsman when he received a call at work. He never would have imagined a call from President Eisenhower—but that's who it was! Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag. Bob Heft was invited to Washington, D.C., for a ceremony during which his design was officially adopted as the new flag of the United States.

Question 1
Part A

What inference about the flag can be made based on a “A Flag with 50 Stars”?


Few people understand the significance of the number of stars and stripes on the flag.


The placement of stars on the flag has been a design challenge throughout history.


The decision to change the design of the flag has always cause controversy.


Its past history is more well known by Americans than its more modern history.

Question 2
Part B

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


“There is no evidence that this legend is true, and no one knows for certain who made the first flag, which had 13 stars and 13 stripes.”

“Legend has it that a Philadelphia seamstress named Betsy Ross was hired by George Washington himself to create this flag.”

“Now that Alaska and Hawaii had been admitted as states, Congressman Moeller had succeeded in having Bob's design chosen as the new U.S. flag.”

“The U.S. flag at the time had six neat rows of eight stars each. What would be the best way to add two more stars while keeping the arrangement neat and orderly?”

PLZ AWNSER NOWTed and his father are going to the grocery store. They need to buy organic apples. Ted asks his father, "How are organic apples different from regular apples?" Ted's father replies, "Organic foods are foods that are grown without chemicals. Companies sometimes use chemicals called pesticides on foods. Pesticides keep bugs from eating foods. This keeps foods from being wasted. However, these chemicals aren't very good for people." Ted then asks, "How do I know an organic food from one that isn't?" His father continues, "Packaged foods like candy bars, frozen products, and even dried fruit are often not organic. Companies have to tell you if a product is organic. They do this by putting a label or sticker on it. But at home, it's easy. For instance, a tomato from Mom's garden is organic. She waters her plants regularly. But she doesn't use plant food or anything else." Question Based on the passage, which is an example of an organic food? Answer options with 4 options 1. cherries from a local orchard that uses pesticides 2. a chocolate bar that comes from a vending machine 3. frozen peas from the grocery store that have no label 4. a cucumber from a garden that has only been watered

Read the passage below from “The Unseen Values.”


Yet today the products of fission applied to peaceful uses are many. The use of isotopes in industry, medicine, agriculture are well known. Food irradiation, nuclear power reactors, now reactors for shipboard use, are with us, and it is hardly the beginning. I frequently ask myself, of late, what 10 years from now will be the commercial, shall we call it, applications of our missile and rocket programs.

Based on the passage above, the reader can infer that the speaker believes:


Research in missile and rocket programs could result in discoveries for unrelated uses.

A lack of funding could mean that space programs will not exist in the future.

Rocket programs of the future will be used for agricultural purposes.

Discoveries in rocket technology will increase the nation’s military strength in the future.

"The Best Board Game"
I have always been a big fan of board games. Monopoly, Candy Land, Scattergories, you name it. When it comes to the best board game to play as a family, there is one clear winner: That game is Sorry. Sorry is a fun game for players of all ages. It is as easy as drawing cards and counting numbered spaces. Most children and adults can play it without becoming frustrated because a lot of the game is based on the luck of the drawn cards. The colors of the pawns include green, red, yellow, and blue. Anyone can win at any time, which makes it a fair game for families of all ages to play.


A. Lastly, Sorry is the best game for families to play because it does not require a lot of strategy.

B. When it comes to the best board game to play as a family, there is one clear winner: That game is Sorry.

C. I have always been a big fan of board games.

D. Most children and adults can play it without becoming frustrated, which makes it a fun game for the whole family.
