DocsTeach and Jackie Robinson

 

Docsteach is a great site for primary sources.  It is an online tool with activities from the US National Archives.  That being said there are activities that would work here in Canada.  For example the one I will link about is on Jackie Robinson (yes the baseball player that broke the colour barrier in MLB) being court-martialed from the US army.  It would work in a unit on civil rights and segregation.  To see the activity click here.
