Mighty Jackie the Strikeout Queen

Today we read the story "Mighty Jackie the Strikeout Queen," a true story about Jackie Mitchell.  Jackie was a woman ballplayer who was able to strike out both Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig in 1931.  Here's a song that we enjoyed listening to in class that summarizes the story.

Students should reread the story for homework.  Their story sheet should be returned tomorrow.

Here's a link to the audio version of the story:

We also completed Practice Workbook page 10 to introduce the Unit 2 spelling words.
