EQT REVIEW•Questions 22-32
Thursday
Bellringer: (write all)What is the purpose of this paragraph?
• A crow perishing with thirst saw a pitcher and, hoping to find water flew to it with delight. When he reached it, he discovered to his grief that the pitcher contained only a little water at the bottom. Because the pitcher was tall and very narrow, the crow could not possible get the water. He tried everything he could think of, but all his efforts were in vain. At last he collected as many stones as he could carry and dropped them one by one with his beak into the pitcher until he brought the water within his reach, thus saving his life.

Bellringer: Please copy the following in cursive – stay in the margins!
I couldn’t even hear the propaganda blaring from the speakers anymore. I felt the damp heat of Nudge’s hand tighten in mine, felt my feathers brushing the cold stone floor, but all I could do was stare at Jeb wile his words rattled senselessly inside my brain.
