Famous Americans

Nathanael has been working very hard these past couple of weeks on the 2nd graders annual Famous Americans presentation. He selected Jackie Robinson from a long list of choices. Using several books, the World Book online, Jackierobinson.com, and the Hall of Fame website, he found out quite a bit about the man that broke the color barrier in baseball. Nathanael was also very interested in seeing the #42 at Coors Field this past weekend. He then explained to the group what it meant and why it was retired.
