Jeremy was behind in his reading for Language Arts. He wrote an email to his teacher advocating for himself.
For your assignment, read Jeremy's email then write at least three complete sentences describing how Jeremy used the SPA method to advocate for himself.
Dear Mr. Kwali,
One week ago, you gave us the homework to read one chapter every night. You told us that we would have to write a chapter summary every morning when we got to class. I was excited to read this book, but also nervous because it is the longest book I've ever tried to read.
Mr. Kwali, I am having a hard time keeping up with my reading. When I sit down to read, sometimes the letters move around. I am trying to read a chapter every night, but it takes me over an hour to read and I also need to finish all my other homework.
I thought of a solution. Could I come to your classroom at lunch so I could read and maybe get some help from you? This way, I can spend some extra time reading and I won't fall behind.
I know that you don't always have students stay for lunch in your classroom, so thank you for your help. Maybe I can come just twice a week.
Thank you,
Jeremy
