The students were excited to learn more about baseball and I loved how they had to use the skills they learned to answer the questions.
My students really enjoyed the content of the passages. It fit perfectly into my end of year reading centers, because it was engaging and caused several students to find books around the topic of baseball or famous baseball players.
