Question 45043 • AISD ELAR 6 Summer Academy 2026

Remember: a fluent reader thinks about phrasing. To read aloud smoothly, a reader groups words that go together and only takes a breath after saying the complete phrase.If you were reading from The Number Devil, which words would you say together as group? Check all that apply.played tricksmiddle of the nightdreamed that the waiting for himthe bike had

Answer
A
played tricks
B
middle of the night
C
dreamed that the
D
waiting for him
E
the bike had

Explanation

Group words together when they make a complete, natural phrase: “played tricks,” “middle of the night,” and “waiting for him.” “Dreamed that the” leaves the thought unfinished, and “the bike had” needs more words to complete what the bike did or had.
