If you don’t have one, Would you like one? Why or why not? Read the title and author and talk about the cover illustration. Note the unusual chapter heads. Tell students that this story is realistic fi ction, so the characters will probably act like real people.

What do you think the problem of this story might be?
Page 3: Turn to page 3. Read the sentence: I know one thing that can make Sharon a red-faced, howling monster. What does this sentence tell you about the narrator of the story?
Page 4: Explain that Shawna borrowed her sister’s soccer equipment too often, and her mother insisted that she apologize. What did her mother want her to do?
Pages 6–7: Point out that the story includes many soccer terms. Make sure students understand the terms offense, foul, referee, intercepted, and opponent.
Pages 12–13: Draw attention to the chapter headings. Explain that the action of the story takes place in one week. Point out that at the end of the book the chapters get shorter, as if the action is speeding up.

conclusions about a character or situation by looking for key details in a story. Model how to add details to the Graphic Organizer, using a “Think Aloud” like the one below:
Think Aloud
At the end of the story, Shawna decides that she has deserved her sister’s anger. That means that Shawna has concluded that she did things that were not fair to Sharon, and that really upset her. On page 4, Shawna says she took Sharon’s new soccer ball and got grass stains on it. Add this detail as a reason for Sharon to be angry with Shawna.
Practice the SkillEncourage students to share their examples of another story in which one character causes problems for another.

Ways of ThinkingAs you discuss the text, help students understand these points:
Thinking Within the Text Thinking Beyond the Text Thinking About the Text
• Shawna borrows her sister’s equipment, hoping it will make her a better player.
• Shawna is upset when her cousin drips chocolate on her good sweater.
• Shawna is genuinely sorry and apologizes to her sister.
• It is possible to be angry with someone, but also to love that person.
• Using a good athlete’s equipment will not make you a better athlete.
• The exact time of day in the chapter heads makes the story more real.
• The language sounds very realistic, the way a ten-year-old girl really talks.
• The author includes lots of details about soccer to make the story more interesting.

Choices for Further Support• Fluency Invite students to choose a passage from the text to act out or use for
readers’ theater. Remind them to pay attention to punctuation, and to stress certain words to sound as if the narrator, Shawna, were actually speaking.
• Comprehension Based on your observations of the students’ reading and discussion, revisit parts of the text to clarify or extend comprehension. Remind students to go back to the text to support their ideas.
• Phonics/Word Work Provide practice as needed with words and word parts, using examples from the text. Remind students that longer words are often formed from shorter, familiar words. For example, the word overreacted on page 4 is a compound word combining the words over and reacted. Shorter words can sometimes help with the meaning of longer words.

6 Yikes! We lost—big. First, Mai, our goalie, accidentally threw
the ball into play while standing in the wrong spot. We lost it,
and the other team scored. Then I made a weak pass that got
intercepted by the other team. Last, Juanita tried to hit the ball
off her head, but it bounced off her left ear and went right to a
player on the other team. Our opponents took the ball and
scored again.
The game is over, but I’m still nervous. This time it’s because
I borrowed Sharon’s shin guards, and one of the straps
snapped when I collided with another player.
