Fiction, theme & literary traditions

Complete source-unit instructional sequence adapted for independent tutoring, with a small unit-level diagnostic and separate fresh reassessment items. All named source lessons remain available in this unit. Five initial check/practice items reuse reviewed source questions; two reassessment items are original and distinct. The checks sample selected unit skills, not every standard. Written work is ungraded and self-reviewed; completing this unit is not a verified STAAR readiness claim.

MODEL AND CHECK TEXT — original fiction Nia stopped at the pool gate. A year earlier, she had watched a lifeguard rescue her friend there. Now she checked that the younger swimmers stayed near the steps. INDEPENDENT TEXT A: THE SPARE KEY — original fiction, nonlinear version (1) When the club reached its workshop, Cam touched the spare key in his pocket and said nothing. The others gathered around the locked door. Jo asked why he was smiling. (2) Last month, Cam had waited outside while their leader searched for a lost key. A storm soaked the cardboard model they had carried to the meeting. Cam had spent the evening rebuilding one corner. The next day, he had asked permission to keep a spare. (3) Now Cam opened the door. Jo moved the new model inside before the rain began. “You could have told us,” she said. Cam looked at the dry cardboard. “I wanted to be sure it worked.” INDEPENDENT TEXT B: THE SPARE KEY — the same events in chronological order (1) Last month, the club’s leader lost the workshop key. Cam waited outside as rain soaked their cardboard model. After rebuilding one corner, he asked permission to keep a spare. (2) At the next meeting, Cam touched the spare in his pocket while the club gathered around the locked door. Jo asked why he was smiling. (3) Cam opened the door. Jo moved the new model inside before the rain began. “You could have told us,” she said. Cam looked at the dry cardboard. “I wanted to be sure it worked.”
