Prompt: What famous person in history do you wish you could speak with on the telephone? Write a question you would ask and how the person might respond. Use quotation marks, commas, question marks, and exclamation points correctly.
Grace's response:
Christifer Columbus (Christopher Columbus)
If I could talk to Christifer Columbus, I would ask him how he found his way.
He would respond, "A lot of courage, and a pinch of luck."
I would also ask him if he had a compass to help navagate (navigate). He would probably answer, "I did have a compass on board."
"Even of all the wild ocean threats, were you brave?"
He would answer, "A bit afraid, but not for long. I found my courage when I thought about on my side was Queen Isabelle of all England (Spain)."
What were your ship names?
"The Pinta, the Nina, and the Santa Maria."
Who gave you the ships?
"Queen Isabelle gave me the ships to go on my journey."
Where were you planning to go?
"I was planning to journey to Asia faster than a desert caravan."
You have an interesting story.
"Yes, I do indeed. Bye! Bye!"
(I wish you could see the cute picture of the Santa Maria that Grace drew at the bottom).
