Mae C. Jemison By Wade Hudson | What is the paragraph telling you?What is going on? Who is it happening to? Where is it happening? When is it happening? |
|
At the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, scientists got ready for an exciting launch. The space shuttle Endeavour was on the launch pad. Its nose pointed straight up toward the clouds. Inside, seven astronauts sat very still in their seats. Each waited for Endeavour to blast off into space. One of the astronauts was Mae C. Jemison. | |
|
Mae was born in Decatur, Georgia. Her family moved to Chicago when she was very young. Her parents told her to study hard and learn as much as she could. Mae loved to learn. She spent many hours in the library reading books about science and science fiction. | |
|
Mae grew up in the 1960s. The whole country was excited about space travel and space exploration. Like many other girls and boys, Mae wanted to be an astronaut. But there were no women astronauts in America then. There were no black astronauts, either. So what were her chances? Mae just kept on dreaming about exploring in space. Nothing was going to stop her. | |
|
When she was sixteen, Mae graduated from high school. Her grades were very good. Stanford University gave her a scholarship and she went there. Mae wanted to be a doctor, so she went to medical school. Later Mae joined the Peace Corps to help needy people in other countries. She went to Sierra Leone and Liberia in West Africa. She used what she had learned in medical school to help the people there. | |
|
But Mae still dreamed of becoming an astronaut. She returned to the United States in 1985. She applied to the astronaut program at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). | |
|
One day, in August 1987, a man from NASA called Jemison with great news. Jemison had been chosen for the astronaut program. She was very happy. Nearly two thousand people had applied to the program. Only fifteen had been selected. Mae Jemison felt really special. | |
|
The training program was hard. Astronauts must be strong and fit, so they exercise. They study mathematics, earth resources, meteorology, guidance and navigation, astronomy, physics, and computers. There is much to learn to get ready for space travel. | |
|
After training for a year, Mae C. Jemison was officially an astronaut. She was eager to travel into space, but she had to wait her turn. Finally, in 1991, she was selected for the space flight on the Endeavour. | |
|
Now Mae had to train for the trip. She was chosen to be the science mission specialist. She had experiments to do while in space. The day finally arrived. As Endeavour sped away from Earth, Mae C. Jemison became the first black woman to explore space. It was a great day for this proud American. She was very happy. Her dream had come true. | |

The Peanut Man
George Washington Carver was always interested in plants. When he was a child, he was known as the “plant doctor.” He had a secret garden where he grew all kinds of plants. People would ask him for advice when they had sick plants. Sometimes he’d take their plants to his garden and nurse them back to health.
Later, when he was teaching at Tuskegee Institute, he put his plant skills to good use. Many people in the South had been growing only cotton on their land. Cotton plants use most of the nutrients in the soil. (Nutrients provide nourishment to plants.) So the soil becomes “worn out” after a few years. Eventually, cotton will no longer grow on this land.
This was especially bad for poor African American farmers, who relied on selling cotton to support themselves. Carver was dedicated to helping those farmers, so he came up with a plan.
Carver knew that certain plants put nutrients back into the soil. One of those plants is the peanut! Peanuts are also a source of protein.
Carver thought that if those farmers planted peanuts, the plants would help restore their soil, provide food for their animals, and provide protein for their families—quite a plant! In 1896 peanuts were not even recognized as a crop in the United States, but Carver would help change that.
Carver told farmers to rotate their crops: plant cotton one year, then the next year plant peanuts and other soil-restoring plants, like peas and sweet potatoes. It worked! The peanut plants grew and produced lots of peanuts. The plants added enough nutrients to the soil so cotton grew the next year. Now the farmers had lots of peanuts—too many for their families and animals—and no place to sell the extras. Again, Carver had a plan. Do you know what he did?
Carver invented all kinds of things made out of peanuts. He wrote down more than 300 uses for peanuts, including peanut milk, peanut paper, and peanut soap. Carver thought that if farmers started making things out of peanuts, they’d have to buy fewer things and would be more self-sufficient. And if other people started making things out of peanuts, they would want to buy the extra peanuts, so the farmers would make more money. Although not many of Carver’s peanut products were ever mass-produced, he did help spread the word about peanuts.
Peanuts became more and more popular. By 1920 there were enough peanut farmers to form the United Peanut Association of America (UPAA). In 1921 the UPAA asked Carver to speak to the U.S. Congress about the many uses for peanuts. Soon the whole country had heard of George Washington Carver, the Peanut Man! And by 1940 peanuts had become one of the top six crops in the U.S.

Immigrants of the Northeast
Many people from other countries have moved to the United States over the years. These people are called immigrants. Most of them entered the United States through a station called Ellis Island, off the coast of New York. For many immigrants, this was a very scary, yet exciting event. Read the article to learn about people moving to the Northeast area of the United States. Then answer the questions that follow.
The Big Picture
Between 1890 and 1914, what had been a steady stream of immigrants turned into a flood. More than 12 million people arrived on America's shores. That's about as many people as live in the state of Pennsylvania today! Many of these immigrants came from countries in Europe such as Poland, Russia, Italy, and Greece. Others came from China, Japan, and Mexico.
Most immigrants traveled by boat and arrived on the Pacific or Atlantic coasts. They settled all across our country, but millions stayed where they had landed, such as in New York City. The arrival of these immigrants transformed the Northeast into an exciting region1 made up of many different ethnic2 groups.
The Ellis Island Museum
Pretend that your class is visiting the Ellis Island Immigration Museum. Before going inside, you learn from your guide that it usually took a ship about three weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean. Few immigrants enjoyed the voyage because it was long and overcrowded.3 No wonder passengers rejoiced when they saw the city in the distance.
The immigrants’ first stop, however, was Ellis Island, which stood a mile off the coast. Beginning in 1892, this island welcomed 17 million people to the United States. After closing in 1954, Ellis Island reopened as a museum in 1990.
Arriving at Ellis Island
“This is where the boats docked,” your guide explains. “Sometimes 5,000 people a day walked through these doors. Guards tied numbered tags to their coats. Then they were shown to the Registry Room.”
Immigrants had to wait in long lines to be examined by doctors to make sure they were healthy enough to work. Some people were sent back home, but most continued on to an immigration officer who asked them questions. After answering the questions, most immigrants walked down a hallway to a door that said: PUSH TO NEW YORK. Beyond that door were a ferry, New York City, the United States, and hope for new life.
-
In the last paragraph of the passage, the author describes a sign on a door that states, “PUSH TO NEW YORK.” Predict how you think the immigrants felt after they walked through this door. What reasons helped you to make this prediction? Support your answer with important details from the passage.

Duke Ellington's Early Years
Duke Ellington was born in Washington D.C., and from an early age he loved music. When he was four years old, he listened to his mother play a popular piano tune called "The Rosary" and he cried, saying, "It was so pretty. So pretty." Not long after that, at the age of seven, he began to play piano himself. It seems that he knew he was going to go places. He told his next-door neighbor, Mr. Pinn, "One of these days I'm going to be famous." How old do you think Duke Ellington was when he started writing music?
At age 15, Ellington worked at a soda fountain and wrote his first song, "Soda Fountain Rag." By his late teens, he was making enough money to help his parents move into a better house. He earned 75 cents. "It was the most money I had ever seen," he said. "I rushed all the way home to my mother with it.” What do you think was Ellington's next move?
Ellington studied music during the ragtime era. Ragtime was a kind of popular American music consisting of off-beat dance rhythms that began with the honky-tonk pianists along the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. By the time he was 20, he and his friends formed a band that would be the foundation for his life's work. From 1923 to 1927, he and his band lived in New York City and made about 60 recordings. Their first big break came on December 4, 1927, at the opening night of what would turn out to be a long engagement at the Cotton Club in New York City's Harlem neighborhood. The Ellington Orchestra often broadcast live on radio from the Cotton Club, so their unique style of jazz became familiar to people across the country.
Explain the author’s most likely purpose for writing about Duke Ellington as a child and young man. Use examples from the passage to support your response and the guide provided to structure your response.

A student has written the draft of an opinion letter to his principal about the school’s short recess periods. The student wants to revise the draft to add more support for his opinion. Read the draft of the letter and complete the task that follows.
Sentences to Support Opinion in a Letter
Dear Principal Phillips,
I am writing to ask you to make our recess period longer. Twenty-five minutes is just not long enough for students to play. By the time we get outside, we have already lost about ten minutes of our time. What time if left does not allow us to play any active games, and we have to hurry back to class. Also, recess is the only time during the day that we can spend with our friends. Having a longer recess would make us better and happier students.
Sincerely,
Blake Hudson
Directions:
Choose two sentences that would add the best support to the underlined opinion about recess.
(A) Most students like to play games such as softball and volleyball.
(B) If we had a longer recess, we would get more exercise and be healthier.
(C) If we has a longer recess, some students could spend some of it studying.
(D) In my brother’s high school, the physical education periods are one hour long.
(E) Another problem is that the sports fields are not large enough for baseball and softball.
(F) Students who have more time to be active will be able to think better when they are back in class.
Using the letter as an example and the guide provided write a letter to Mr. Samuels expressing why you believe your recess should be longer.

A student is writing a research report about hovercraft. She found a source. Read Source 1 and the directions that follow.
Supporting Author's Opinion from Hovercraft Source
Source 1: Hovercraft by James Thomas
In 1955, a British man put some cans and tubes together and made the first tiny hovercraft. Hovercraft look like a ship and can float over water, land, or even swamps. They work really well in places where the land is rocky, swampy, or icy because they can float as little as six inches or as much as seven feet into the air. Hovercraft float because they have big fans that are on the bottom of the craft. The big fans lift them off the ground. This makes hovercraft very useful in places that do not have many roads. In fact, hovercraft are the best way to travel when there are no roads to follow. They are even used the save people when they need help, like during a flood.
-
The student took notes about hovercraft. Select two notes that support the author’s opinion in Source 1.
(A) Hovercraft are used in many countries in the world.
(B) Hovercraft are now being used to give tours in many cities.
(C) People who love hovercraft can join clubs and take part in races.
(D) Some hovercraft are so small that only one person can ride in them.
(E) Hovercraft can help rescue teams get safely to areas where cars cannot travel.
(F) By floating above rocks and waves, hovercraft offer a smooth ride for passengers.
