Wyatt Cash has a three-part plan. Play travel ball in middle school. Letter on the high school varsity team. Play college ball at a Division One school. Step One: Make it through tryouts and earn a spot on the Tornadoes, where he faces intentional and unintentional snubs from peers and adults alike. There’s only one problem: Wyatt inherited a genetic trait from his dad that makes keeping his cool difficult. The more he learns about the past, the more Wyatt begins to question the rules he’s always followed to fit in. Will Wyatt be able to keep his stone cold facade and his personal dreams from going up in smoke? This educator’s guide creates opportunities for students to learn more about the historical events and injustices highlighted in The Rule of Three. The discussion questions and activities allow for text-to-self and text-to-real-world connections, making inferences, and practicing critical thinking skills.
