Careful Repairs Answer Key

In this worksheet, students read a passage about Diego using careful, step-by-step problem-solving to fix a household lamp. After reading, they write a creative scenario showing how the same skill or lesson could be applied in a different situation. Students must craft a 5-6 sentence response that clearly connects their new scenario back to the original passage’s message about patience, caution, and systematic thinking. This develops students’ ability to transfer knowledge from text to new contexts, strengthening real-world application skills. It also promotes creative thinking and evidence-based writing.
