here that we're going to read about Well rounded curriculum
I think you're going to be talking about reasonable conditions
What do you think president decided to leave lincoln relegate
percent and percent per decade Our dedication And that was
enough to last a lifetime If i can only between
israel times economically publications like what we're going for something
a little side bet going on about getting really really
wanted me back I don't know everything My father is
a good thing that my father was a nickel back
T o your insight Okay well wow That's ah politically
charged statement here So let's See where we go with
it First question to make the paragraph flow most smoothly
Where should sentence one be placed All right well think
about this so sentence ones go back right here It
is the making of connections through a rich arts inclusive

right well if sentence one came after sentenced to let
it sort of kind of makes sense Maybe since it's
answering the question but it would throw off sentence three
there Who's yet is meant to directly follow sentenced to
thereby creating a contrast you have to remember when you're
answering these kind of questions you can't change any words
subsequently or linkages or whatever All you can do is
cut and paste the sentence they're talking about You can't
do any carpentry around the edges We'll put in sentence
one before sentencing Four might confuse the reader by making
her think that the rich curriculum is the math science
and reading mentioned in sentence Three like all the things
that you you know actually could do to get a
job and pay your rent in the real world So
that's it Er the answer is d after sentence for 00:02:34.343 --> [endTime] we're done
