Explains the advantages of using the box offense which, when properly executed, can pressure an opposing team into submission. Along with a written explanation of box offense strategies are hundreds of diagrams illustrating plays that can be used on fast breaks, against zone and man-to-man defensive sets, and in other special situations. Brown concludes with some tips on scouting other teams and what to look for when preparing for an opponent.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 2-5?A compilation of experiments, games, and activities. Hirschfeld and White begin by offering basic information about making and recording observations, which will be helpful to readers looking to start science-fair projects. The authors provide clear explanations of common terms in the scientific method such as hypothesis, procedures, and data, and include examples. In addition, they explain that results don't always agree with their hypothesis, and that does not mean that the experiment was a failure. Safety precautions are included. There are labeled symbols prior to each experiment or activity, but no introductory explanation as to how this type of organizational symbol can be helpful. Black-and-white line drawings are simple and attractive. This is an excellent collection of many commonly requested experiments (growing seeds, making volcanoes, modeling the solar system using vegetables for relative size). There are also some not-so-common ideas here such as measuring the body heat of your hand inside a mitten; making a measuring wheel; and experimenting with opaque, transparent, and translucent paper.?Blair Christolon, Prince William Library, Manassas, VA
