1.Read the question carefully. Read every word. Read it five
times. Make sure you understand what the teacher wants you to do.
“Was Viola Desmond or Rosa Parks right to protest the
way she did?”
was she right to protest- did she do the right thing, was
she justified. was it the correct decision

students just retold the story.
