Birthday Surprises

My birthday was coming up and I was getting worried. Dad is such a prankster that I never

know what to expect. One year he got a piñata, but didn’t put any candy in it. My friends

and I took turns smacking it with a stick and when it finally broke open, there was nothing

inside! Dad laughed at that one. Another year Dad gave me a giant present. I started to

unwrap it and inside was another present. And inside that was another present. Finally I got

to the last present and I unwrapped…a toothpick! He gave me my real gift later, but not before

he laughed and laughed at my tiny toothpick present. A few days before my birthday, Dad

starting walking around with a funny smile and I knew I was in for some trouble. My friends

arrived for the party and nothing happened. We played some games, but there were no tricks.

We ate pizza and everything was normal. I started to worry that maybe Dad hadn’t done a

birthday trick after all. I felt a little disappointed. I thought that I didn’t like Dad’s pranks, but

now that I wasn’t getting one I was sad. I realized Dad teases me because he loves me. His

pranks may give me headaches, but they also help me feel loved. Then it was time for cake.

We turned out the lights. Dad lit the candles and set the cake in front of me. Everyone sang. I

leaned over to blow out the candles. One by one all 9 went out. Then, one by one the candles

relit. I blew them again—harder this time. And again they relit. They were trick candles! The

lights were still out, but in the darkness I could hear Dad laughing. He really does love me!

Having a Ball

The game of basketball was invented over 100 years ago in 1891. Dr. James Naismith was a

PE teacher in Massachusetts. He was asked to invent a lively game that was easily learned, so

the students could play inside during the bitter winters. The sport Naismith invented looked

very different than basketball today. The first game was played with 9 players on each team

because Dr. Naismith had 18 students in his class. Today, there are only 5 players on each

team. The ball was a soccer ball and instead of nets they used actual baskets nailed to the

walls. Every time someone made a basket the janitor had to bring out the ladder and climb up

to get the ball out! Eventually a hole was made in the bottom of the basket so a stick could be

used to push the ball up and out. During the first game, they realized a name was needed for

this new sport. Someone suggested it be called Naismith Game after the inventor, but Dr.

Naismith disagreed. “We have a ball and a basket; why don’t we call it basketball?” The

name has stuck. Today children and adults all over the world enjoy playing basketball. It’s a

good way to exercise, but more than that, it’s an excellent way to have fun! Dr. Naismith

never made any money from his invention. Perhaps the next time you pick up a basketball you

can think of that PE teacher nailing baskets on the wall so long ago.

I can describe the relationship between a series of historical events.

Having a Ball

The game of basketball was invented over 100 years ago in 1891. Dr. James Naismith was a

PE teacher in Massachusetts. He was asked to invent a lively game that was easily learned, so

the students could play inside during the bitter winters. The sport Naismith invented looked

very different than basketball today. The first game was played with 9 players on each team

because Dr. Naismith had 18 students in his class. Today, there are only 5 players on each

team. The ball was a soccer ball and instead of nets they used actual baskets nailed to the

walls. Every time someone made a basket the janitor had to bring out the ladder and climb up

to get the ball out! Eventually a hole was made in the bottom of the basket so a stick could be

used to push the ball up and out. During the first game, they realized a name was needed for

this new sport. Someone suggested it be called Naismith Game after the inventor, but Dr.

Naismith disagreed. “We have a ball and a basket; why don’t we call it basketball?” The

name has stuck. Today children and adults all over the world enjoy playing basketball. It’s a

good way to exercise, but more than that, it’s an excellent way to have fun! Dr. Naismith

never made any money from his invention. Perhaps the next time you pick up a basketball you

can think of that PE teacher nailing baskets on the wall so long ago.
