The Sports Network 2
The Sports Network 2 (or TSN-2) is a sports TV network that needs your help as their Managing Director. News stories need to be proofread, articles must be properly written, and celebrities are stopping by for interviews--you have a lot on your plate! Interact closely with an abundance of memorable characters and explore the office, all in your efforts to become the best sports network ever.
You will practice determining the central idea of a text, understanding the connections and distinctions between ideas, determine the meaning of words and phrases as they're used in writing, and cite textual evidence that strongly supports an analysis of what the text explicitly says. Numerous minigames make doing all this much easier, and you'll have a blast every time a new challenge comes your way!
