@DangerousJesse please don't give out direct answers.

Here's an example of rummaging: She groaned as she peeked past the opening of her back pack, knowing she would soon be forced to dive into the depths of the forgotten homework and pencils. She hesitantly began to rummage through her bag, pushing everything aside haphazardly.

OpenStudy (dangerousjesse):

@Whitemonsterbunny17 I was giving her the correct definition and an example.

whitemonsterbunny17 (whitemonsterbunny17):

Yes, but you first gave her the direct answer. Next time try to get her to figure out the correct answer herself, as I was trying to do. @DangerousJesse
