Priya: Coach Ramirez, every time I dribble the basketball, it bounces away from me.

Coach Ramirez: Let me see. Ah, you are slapping the ball with your whole hand. Try pushing it down with your fingertips instead.

Priya: Like this?

Coach Ramirez: Better! Now keep the ball low, near your knees. And walk slowly at first. When you can walk without losing the ball, then you can try running.

Priya: Can I practice at recess?

Coach Ramirez: Sure. Take a ball from the green bin, and put it back when the bell rings.
