   Trouble at Recess

   Ana kicked her ball so high that it landed on the roof. Mr. Cruz brought a long pole and nudged the ball down. Ben could not find anyone to play tag with. He asked a group of children if they wanted one more player, and they said yes. Rosa's shoelace came untied again and again. She tied a double knot and the laces stayed put. Leo's jump rope was too short for the game. He tied a second rope to the end and made it longer.
