Choosing a Capstone Topic LITERACY · 8TH GRADE Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. A capstone project runs long enough that the topic has to survive months of your own attention, so genuine curiosity matters more than it does for a short assignment. The workable topic sits where three things overlap: something you want to understand, something with accessible sources or data, and something you can produce a definite deliverable about. Test feasibility early by spending an hour looking for sources, since a topic with nothing available is not a topic. Narrow it more than feels necessary, because capstones expand as they go and almost nobody finishes wishing they had chosen something broader. Discuss the idea with someone knowledgeable before committing, as an experienced reader can usually name the obstacle in five minutes. Questions: 1 Where does a workable capstone topic sit? 2 How can you test feasibility early? 3 Why should you narrow more than feels necessary? www.littleactivity.com 8th Grade · Literacy

Classifying Emotions LITERACY · KINDERGARTEN Name Date Read the passage, then answer the questions below. Emotions are the feelings inside you, and giving them a name makes them easier to handle. Some feel good, like happy, proud, and excited. Some feel hard, like angry, worried, or disappointed. Hard feelings are not bad; everyone has them, and they usually pass.
