  4. Answer the following questions based on the Rosa Parks biography… • Pull out one quote that shows Rosa Parks true character. Explain why you chose this quote. • Based on the author’s portrayal of Rosa Parks, in what ways did Rosa Parks’ character affect her choices she made in her career? Explain. • Which paragraph contains evidence that best supports your answer in #2? Cite two pieces of evidence from the paragraph. • What is the purpose of this sentence?: “I did not want to be mistreated, I did not want to be deprived of a seat that I had paid for.” • Which detail best supports the purpose of the sentence from #4? • How does the “Rosa Parks After Boycott” section contribute to the text as a whole? • Cite a quote from the “Rosa Parks After Boycott” to support your answer from #6. • What is the central idea of the “Montgomery Bus Boycott” section? • Which sentence best helps develop the central idea from #8?

  5. Argumentative Writing • Use the biography and two videos to compose a writing response. • Rosa Parks made significant contributions in her quest for equal rights. Her accomplishments opened the door for other civil rights leaders to overcome racism and segregation. • In 2-3 paragraphs, make a claim about Rosa Parks as a role model for overcoming obstacles in the face of adversity. Is Rosa Parks a good example for people who are facing adversity? Support your response with textual evidence and inferences drawn from the text.

  6. Outline • You don’t need an introduction, counterargument, or conclusion. • Essentially, you are going to write 2-3 paragraphs that would serve as body paragraphs. Pick 2-3 reasons to support your argument and make sure that the topic is clear at the beginning of the paragraph. Include textual evidence.
