Jackie Robinson Summary

Today the students and I finished up our work on Jackie Robinson. We used our organizer for summarizing a biography to write this paragraph. (See below) The students did a wonderful job.

Jackie Robinson


Do you know who Jackie Robinson is?  He was famous for being the first African American to play in the Major Leagues.  But, this was not easy because people were always yelling at him while he was playing.  Some people even threw balls at his head and kicked him with their spiked cleats.  Jackie overcame the “Great Experiment” with the help of his friend Pee-Wee Reese.  He went on to play in the Major League on the Dodgers.
