What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore—
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over—
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

To inform readers about what happens to rotten meat


To explain to readers how easy it is to follow one's dreams


To help readers understand the dangers of achieving one's dreams.

The Swim Challenge
Chapter 1

"You know dogs and even cats can learn how to swim," Mac started, hoping Rashmi would take inspiration from the animals she helped care for at the animal shelter. "If they can do it, you should know that you certainly can learn."

"Oh thank you," Rashmi replied, clearly not happy that she wasn't as capable as a dog. "I'm so glad to know it's not just my own species that is better at this than I am."

"Well, clinging to the side like that is not going to get you any further," Mac replied. "You asked me to help you, remember. This isn't exactly fun for me."

"I'm sorry; I just don't know what comes over me. I don't think I can do this," Rashmi said.

"Look, why do you want to? What is the reason you decided now to learn how to swim?" Mac hung on the pool ledge too, gently splashing water up into the drain with her hand. Mac knew Rashmi was good at many things: soccer, mathematics, science, and anything to do with insects. Mac also knew that Rashmi hated being wrong, hated looking uncertain, and above all, hated losing any kind of contest.

"If I tell you, do you promise not to laugh?"

"Of course, no laughing. I promise."

"I have this recurring dream that I'm stuck on a raft. I've had it since I was little. I know it's just a dream, but I can see and feel the waves. And I'm just a few yards from the shore, but too terrified to reach it. I just bob there on my raft, reaching out for something safe. Never reaching it. "

"I'm no expert," Mac said softly, "but I'm thinking that dream is about a lot more than just swimming."

"I know," said Rashmi, "but I think if I can learn to swim, I can learn to be confident. And not have this fear and need for safety." Rashmi paused and pushed her wet hair behind her ear. It clumped up, looking like a bird's nest. "I could do just about anything if I could learn to do this."

Mac felt as if she had taken on much more than just teaching someone to swim. Could she do all that Rashmi needed her to?

Chapter 2

Mac let the pressure of Rashmi's nightmare wash over her. Mac wasn't sure if she could actually break through Rashmi's fears, but she knew she had to try.

"Maybe if you think about what all you have to gain by learning to swim, that will help. You want to try again?"

"Okay," said Rashmi, still uncertain.

"Do you trust me?" Mac asked.

"Of course, at least most of the time."

"Well, then give me your hand and let go of the ledge. I will hold on for both of us," Mac said.

Mac watched the fear in Rashmi's face. She could see the battle in her eyes. It was as if two people were fighting a war: one trying to hold on to what she knew as safe; the other wanting to reach across some unknown peril to a lasting, more real, kind of safe. Rashmi reached her hand out and clamped down on Mac's arm. Mac thought she might have to yell from the painful squeeze, but Rashmi relaxed her grip just before letting go of the side.

"Great," said Mac, "now move your other hand in the water like this." Mac made a back and forth motion with her palm down in the water, as if she were waving at the bottom. "Imagine you are queen waving at your subjects who happen to be fish."

Laughing, Rashmi began waving to her watery subjects. She quickly found her head a bit higher above the water than before.

"You see," said Mac, "when we add the other hand, you'll be treading water. But before we do that, let's add your feet too. Do you think you can wave with your toes and feet?"

Rashmi wiggled her feet, forgetting about her hand and sunk a little. Panicked, she grasped Mac with both hands.

"Nope," said Mac, "don't wiggle those feet, wave them. First one and then the other, like you are pedaling a bicycle only with your toes pointed down. They both watched Rashmi move her feet back and forth.

"That's it; now add your free hand." Mac felt Rashmi let go of her arm, and begin waving her hand. Again, Rashmi's head cleared the water and lifted higher.

"Oh my goodness," Rashmi said. "I'm not sinking. I'm kind of floating."

"I know, and in a minute you'll be doing it all by yourself. Then you'll learn to float and then kick and then before you know it, you'll be my best competition on the swim team."

Rashmi laughed, "Oh you don't want to challenge me. I may swim like a walrus walks on land, but I have the dedication of a human who hates losing."

Mac knew then they had reached the beginning of the end of Rashmi's nightmares.

Read the excerpt from “W.E.B. Du Bois: Social Justice Leader.”

Du Bois graduated at the top of his high school class. With the help of his community, he graduated from Fisk University--a historically black university--in Nashville, Tennessee. He later went on to get a bachelor of arts and a doctorate from Harvard. He was the first African American student to earn a doctorate at Harvard.

Living in Nashville had a significant effect on Du Bois, because it allowed him to see firsthand the effects of racism and Jim Crow laws on African American culture. What he witnessed during his years at college helped form the basis of his life’s work in civil rights.

Which statement contains explicit information from the excerpt?

A) Du Bois was a very intelligent and hard-working student throughout his life.
B) Du Bois earned a bachelor’s degree and a doctorate from Harvard University.
C) Du Bois might not have attended college without his community’s support.
D) Du Bois led the way for other African American students to graduate from Harvard.

And when white moths were on the wing,

And moth-like stars were flickering out,

I dropped the berry in a stream

And caught a little silver trout.



When I had laid it on the floor

I went to blow the fire a-flame,

But something rustled on the floor,

And someone called me by my name:

It had become a glimmering girl

With apple blossom in her hair

Who called me by my name and ran

And faded through the brightening air.

You are to write an essay arguing the right OR wrong for stealing from (Papa) Esperanza's family. Write your essay after you've chosen a side - BANDIT or PAPA. Be sure to use evidence from the book to DEFEND your position (argument).
“Our land is alive, Esperanza,” said Papa, taking her small hand as they walked through the gentle slopes of the vineyard. Leafy green vines draped the arbors and the grapes were ready to drop. Esperanza was six years old and loved to walk with her papa through the winding rows, gazing up at him and watching his eyes dance with love for the land. “This whole valley breathes and lives,” he said, sweeping his arm toward the distant mountains that guarded them. “It gives us the grapes and then they welcome us.” He gently touched a wild tendril that reached into the row, as if it had been waiting to shake his hand. He picked up a handful of earth and studied it. “Did you know that when you lie down on the land, you can feel it breathe? That you can feel its heart beating?” “Papi, I want to feel it,” she said. “Come.” They walked to the end of the row, where the incline of the land formed a grassy swell. 2 Papa lay down on his stomach and looked up at her, patting the ground next to him. Esperanza smoothed her dress and knelt down. Then, like a caterpillar, she slowly inched flat next to him, their faces looking at each other. The warm sun pressed on one of Esperanza’s cheeks and the warm earth on the other. She giggled. “Shhh,” he said. “You can only feel the earth’s heartbeat when you are still and quiet.” She swallowed her laughter and after a moment said, “I can’t hear it, Papi.” “Aguántate tantito y la fruta caerá en tu mano,” he said. “Wait a little while and the fruit will fall into your hand. You must be patient, Esperanza.” She waited and lay silent, watching Papa’s eyes. And then she felt it. Softly at first. A gentle thumping. Then stronger. A resounding thud, thud, thud against her body. She could hear it, too. The beat rushing in her ears. Shoomp, shoomp, shoomp. 3 She stared at Papa, not wanting to say a word. Not wanting to lose the sound. Not wanting to forget the feel of the heart of the valley. She pressed closer to the ground, until her body was breathing with the earth’s. And with Papa’s. The three hearts beating together. She smiled at Papa, not needing to talk, her eyes saying everything. And his smile answered hers. Telling her that he knew she had felt it.

The Sky Has No Limits, by Roger T. Reynolds
The state of NASA’s space program has been the subject of much speculation in recent years. Debates have raged among members of Congress, business owners, and the general public. the president has expressed his thoughts on numerous occasions as well. The conversations seem to boil down to one question: Do the benefits of space travel outweigh the cost? A logical look at the question makes the answer quite apparent. NASA’s space program is worth preserving at any cost.
Put simply, NASA creates jobs. Jobs, in return, help the economy. A single space project can employ hundreds of workers from high level, top security jobs to lower level, yet important role players. Scientists are assigned to solve problems. Engineers are contracted to build prototypes. Truckers are hired to transport materials. Large corporations are paid for contributions, earning profits so they may hire more employees.
The work of NASA also pays huge dividends for the environment. Studying Earth from space provides keen insight into many areas. Scientists monitor the ozone layer. They track the effects of global warming. They study patterns of dangerous storms. They test the possibility of space colonies. All of these activities offer hope to our increasingly overcrowded planet.
The work of NASA often leads to advances in technology. Solving the mysteries of space creates solutions that help elsewhere. The Jaws of Life save victims in car accidents. The technology came from NASA research. The artificial heart did, as well. The list goes on. Architects, athletes, and autoworkers have benefited from space-related discoveries. NASA has enhanced everything from shoes to food. You likely come into contact with something improved by NASA nearly every day.
It is impossible to list all the benefits of a thriving space program. It is equally impossible to predict how many new benefits are within our grasp. To find them, we must keep reaching for the stars.

Just to clarify, the birds these contestants are counting are the number that they see in a particular year. You see, the contest is based on an honor system.

Usually, important sightings of the rare birds needed to get counts in the 700s are visited by hundreds of birders. It is pretty hard to cheat your way to a record-breaking year, but in general, few are interested in cheating.
