Making Predictions in a Mystery: "Object Lesson"

Question 1 • FL-1001010-M/J Language Arts 1 A-CR

What evidence from "Object Lesson, Part 1" best supports the prediction that Miss Carpenter will continue to risk her job for her students?

Answer
A
She tells Ellery details about her students’ jobs and their lives outside school.
B
She asks Ellery to talk to her class without seeking her principal’s permission.
C
She accuses her students of stealing an envelope of money from her desk.
D
She agrees to spend first period solving a crime as a life lesson for her class.

Explanation

Miss Carpenter agrees to use first period to solve a crime as a lesson for her students, even though this takes time away from regular instruction and could put her job at risk. This choice most directly shows that she is willing to bend school expectations for her students’ benefit. The other choices do not show the same willingness to risk her position.
