Teachers, save “Guess My Object: Descriptive Writing” to assign it to your class.

I am thinking of an object that I can hold in my hands. This object is in the shape of a sphere and it can fall through baskets. I can bounce, throw, toss, and dribble this object. Some people can even spin it around on their finger! This object is loved by people of all ages and thousands of people gather to watch others play with it. Can you guess my object?
