Basketball and My Family

by Nicholas S

Basketball is one of my favorite sports. My favorite Basketbal players are Shawn Kemp, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Gary Payton, Dinis Rodman, Penny Hardaway, Shaq O'Neal.

This is my first time playing basketball on a team. The name of are team is the Bulls and my first game is May 18th. My basketball team practices on Mondays from 6 PM to 7PM. My teanm is learning how to do layups, how to shoot from the free throw line, how to do defense and offense, how to block and how to pass. We are also learning different plays. It is fun to play. i like the last part of the game. That's when we say, "good game", "good job" and shake hands with the other team.

I like to playa soccer too. I have six soccer trophies. My favorite position is forward. I like to boot the ball in the air. Once I kicked it so hard that it went from one goal to the other and I almost scored a goal. I am going to play in the fall.

Here are 5 generations of my family.
My Great-great grandmother's name is Grandma Mag. She lives in North Carolina with my Great Grandmother, Grandma Vera. She will be 98 years old on August 9th. I think She knows a lot because Shehas lived a long time and She has learned many things She has taught me some of the things She has learned She has taught me that my elders are imortant to be kind to be
respectful to others to show good manners how to be proud of myself and
how to have fun I'm glad she is still alive Grandma Mag dies She will
be an Angel watcing over me she'll get a letter from the president She will probably beproud of it I will be proud of her and I love her very much.
