Go Yankees |
"Go Yankees" began as a simple assignment. Students were asked to read a biography of a famous New York Yankee, past or present. As they shared their reading, it began very clear that more then a standard book report was called for. The idea to create baseball cards was born. All of the activities found in "Go Yankees" were inspired by and at times generated by my students. I thank them for their creativity, sportsmanship, enthusiasm, and commitment to learning. I wish them well as they bring their talents, dedication, and good spirit to the field of life. Sandra A. Skea, teacher The Mott Hall School Student Baseball Card
