Using only the guidance from the poster, describe how you would respond to a two-part question using the R.A.C.E. strategy.

Directions: Answer this question using R.A.C.E. After reading the passage below, respond in complete sentences.

Passage:

Sea turtles are some of the oldest living creatures in our world. Unfortunately, almost all kinds of sea turtles are endangered. This means they are at risk of going extinct. Humans are the biggest threat to endangered animals. Sea turtles are killed for many reasons: their shells, meat, and skin. Sometimes they are also killed accidentally by fishermen. Water pollution in the oceans is another main cause of death for these beautiful animals. Poisonous chemicals are dumped into the ocean and destroy the turtles’ habitats.

Question:

What is one reason that sea turtles are endangered? How can we save them?
