Set A L3-B2 Sam Plays Swing Ball
Sam saw the big boys and girls playing swing ball.
“Can I play, too?” she said.
“You are too little to play with us,” said a big boy.
“The ball goes too fast and it will hit you.”
Sam sat down on the grass and looked at the big boys and girls.
The bell went, and all the boys and girls ran inside.
But Sam went to get one of the bats.
Sam hit the ball.
It went way up and it came back down to her.
Sam hit the ball again and again. It went faster and faster.
She had fun, and she forgot to go inside.
“Where is Sam?” said the teacher.
“Sam is playing outside,” said a boy.
“She is naughty.”
The teacher looked out the window, and she saw Sam.
The teacher said, “Sam is not naughty. She is new at school. Kate, will you go outside and get her for me, please?”
“I forgot to come inside,” said Sam.
“Swing ball is fun.”
