🕵️ Summit: The Misquote Mystery
The school newsletter prints words Sam never said, and the crew follows the evidence to find out how a quote went wrong. Students run three misquote checks — verb backshift, people and time shifts, and the whole meaning — while reading a mystery for an implied idea. They finish by writing the 50–80-word correction that sets the record straight.
Lesson Plan
- Share a time your words were repeated wrongly
- Discuss why stories change as they travel
- Decide what makes news trustworthy
Key Vocabulary
Grammar Points
- Reported statements with backshift: gives → gave, am → was, can → could, will → would
- say versus tell: said (that) + clause; told + person + (that) + clause
- Pronoun shifts: I → he/she, me → him/her, my → his/her
- Time shifts: now → then, today → that day, yesterday → the day before
