Today Hudson worked on answering writing prompts and reading comprehension after reading a non-fiction article from commonlit.org, called, "The Distracted Teenage Brain."

The article prompted him to answer four guiding questions to check for comprehension. He learned the definitions of four vocabulary words used in the article: allure, earnest, orientation, and adolescents. He answered five assessment questions which checked for understanding of the central idea, supporting evidence, context clues, and analysis and evaluation of claim. He wrote the answer to assessment question #5 as a paragraph which included the components of a paragraph: topic sentence, supporting evidence, elaboration and restatement of main idea.

He verbally answered the discussion questions by using well-formed sentences.
