Riding My Bike

Riding My Bike:

One day when I was riding my bike and I decided to do a bunnyhop like Tyrone my friend.I thought all you had to do was do a popawheeley and jump but, boy was i mistaken. Let me tell you how wrong I was..... First I had to pick up the front of the bike really high. Then i jad to learn how to get the back wheel up. Then i practice it over& over again.Also when I was racing I went really fast & I did a popawheeley off the curb & on the street & did a bunnyhop. And what do you know Idid it did it good.So after that I wanted to speed!! down the hill so I can go high off

the curb on the street & do a bunnyhop. And knoww I can do it like eating.

Couplets

My name is Alan-michael

My life is like a flowing water cylce

Bert my dad is my mothers lover

And I made someone fall

All About Me

By: Alan-Michael Dunn

This is what my sister thinks of me. My sister thinks I'm outgoing because I will go and do

something until I can't do it anymore. Sweet because I'm gentle hearted and unique because I

can

think of things in a instant.

This is what my little brother thinks of me. My brother thinks I'm smart because I

can do stuff that other people cant do. He thinks I'm athletic because I play

sports well. Also generous because I let him wear my clothes.

My mom thinks of me as a kind hearted young man because I'm loving, and caring

Towards my peers when they need it most. Funny because when she's down I'm

there to help put a smile on her face. And fun because I can make something that

is boring seem fun.

And my dad thinks of me as a outstanding vocalist because I can sing good, and a good role

model for the four, five and six year olds at church. Because they look up to me and I do the

right thing. And also uplifting because I barley get mad.

Now, finally me. I think I'm special because I'm energetic and stylish. Also and I can write a

page all about me. That's what special about me.Back to top

A Nice Crossover

BY: Alan-Michael Dunn

A nice crossover is something special. A crossover is when you move one way then switch other way, keeping the ball away from the defender. Or in other words it is used to penetrate the defense. Also to set up a play what do you mean? you ask; well if you were doubled teamed you could use your crossover to get passed them, go down the middle fake like your going to shoot, pass the basketball, and score. Now that you know what a crossover is and how to use it here are some steps on how to have a nice crossover.

STEP # 1
TO have a nice crossover you have to be able to bounce a basketball with your right and left hand. Once you've done that practice bouncing the ball back and forth with your right and left hand. Keep practicing until you get better and better. Also keep your head up while your bouncing the ball so you can see which way to go and where your tea mates are on the floor.

STEP# 2
Then practice bouncing the basketball through your legs, that way if the defender tries to steal the ball he can't get it. Also after you've done that you can fake like your going to the left and go to the right. Or if you bounce basketball through your right leg, you can fake like your going to the right, switch and bounce the ball with your left hand, then switch back and you've lost them.

STEP# 3
Study the defense of the defender so that you will know what to do and what not to do. Try to find the weakness , and once you've done that, you can easily get by them.

Now that you know how to do it, when to do it, and how to make the defender look bad try it on your friends.

The Grip

By:Alan-Michael Dunn
Once, a boy made a basketball out of rubber. He used cloth and then ten pounds of rubber. But he needed a nice, firm grip. This little inventor's name is Lime Shabonka Slime. Lime grew up in Slimyville. Slimyville is really slimy, so you know that you can't get some of the materials that you needed
