Common Core Reading
Golden Keys
A bunch of golden keys is mine To make each day with gladness shine. "Good morning!" that's the golden key That unlocks every door for me. When evening comes, "Good night!" I say, And close the door of each glad day. When at the table "If you please" I take from off my bunch of keys. When friends give anything to me, I'll use the little "Thank you" key. "Excuse me," "Beg your pardon," too, When by mistake some harm I do. Or if unkindly harm I've given, With "Forgive me" key I'll be forgiven. On a golden ring these keys I'll bind, This is its motto: "Be ye kind." I'll often use each golden key, And so a happy child I'll be.
This is an example of a CCSS reading question.
The theme of this poem is that manners are important. Write a paragraph explaining the key points and use details from the poem to support your response.

Advocacy-getting students to ask for help. Presentations-teaching and practicing effective
public speaking strategies. Organization-we are working hard on this. Grading System-percentage/letter based practice
