Read the excerpt from Weve Got a Job by Cynthia Levinson
The leaders were assigned to visit specific classrooms. 'We never entered into the classroom," high schooler Gwendolyn
Sanders explained. "We would pass by the door... and give a cue, and the next thing you know, they were following us
because the word was out that we were going to turn the school out that day..We knew which door to take them out, which
route to take to the destination."
What does the use of Gwendolyn's direct quote help the reader understand?
that she gave a thumbs-up sign as her clue to the students
that she was organized and in charge
that she was a popular student whom others would follow
that she was her teacher's favorite student
