5. Identify examples of how Miss Johnson helps her students to “dream impossible dreams” in the excerpt from We Beat the Street.
(Skills Focus Question #5)

Answer:

(I might have got some things wrong because I kinda rushed to read the PDF)

Explanation:

1. Miss Johnson talked about Shakespeare to her students, telling them about the things Shakespeare done and Shakespeare dream and stuff.

2. Miss Johnson says, "In order to seek his fortune as an actor and writer, Shakespeare ran away from home shortly after he got married, leaving his wife and three children to make it without him." Not that Miss Johnson was telling her students to get married and then run away to achieve their dreams-- but something like make a few sacrifices (give up a subject) to achieve what you really want to do and your dream.

3. She tells George about college and how George could probably learn to write symphonies or plays. George thinks about this and thinks college like something foreign and vague-- "like going to China or the moon.", because Miss Johnson told George this, George is more interested and curious about college and thinks about dreams and stuff.

4. Miss Johnson tells George that he's the smartest kid in her class and that being smart isn't "uncool" . She says that it doesn't matter what others think and that being smart can get George fit for college.

Sorry I couldn't find a 5!!
