Today we read Jackie Mitchell the Strikeout Queen on pages 58 to 70 in our Storytown book. Rereading this story is tonight's homework. The purple sheet is due back tomorrow. Students enjoyed this biography very much, and we watched a short video of the story, including the clip that shows Babe Ruth being struck out "by a girl." There's also a song that retells the story. You can listen to these both by clicking below:

We also worked on our four sentence types as we filled in cartoon bubbles using different kinds of sentences. Here's a game about the four types of sentences:
