Question 15 • FL-1001010-M/J Language Arts 1 A-CR

Which detail from "At School" supports the central idea that foreign-born children were not given enough meaningful support at school in the early 1900s?

Answer
A
They were simply placed in regular classes with much younger American-born children.
B
Instruction emphasized the three Rs, American history and geography, penmanship, and spelling.
C
Students stood at their desks as they performed physical fitness exercises every morning.
D
In some city schools, nearly all the students came from immigrant families.

Explanation

The detail that children were placed in regular classes with much younger American-born students suggests they were not given support tailored to their needs. The other details describe what was taught, a daily exercise routine, or the makeup of some schools; they do not show the lack of meaningful support as directly.
