Unit2 - Test - 6th Grade

Planning a Mural

The students in the art club were making plans. They wanted to paint a mural on the outside of the town’s recycling center. Their teacher offered to help them write a letter. The letter would describe the plans for the mural. It would ask for permission to paint. The students would ask people in town to sign the letter. If enough people signed, the students would take it to Town Hall.

The students had begun to argue over ideas for the mural. They had very different ideas. Sammy hoped to paint a picture of the town. Jessie wanted to show a rainy day and a sunny day. Anita just wanted to paint ponies. Anita loved ponies! But Luis’s choice was the winner. Everyone agreed it was the perfect idea. Their mural at the recycling center would show people recycling!
