Objective: SWBAT devise the meaning of words by reading them in context. SWBAT describe the impact the Negro Leagues had on baseball.
Do-Now: List THREE facts you remember from yesterday's article on "The Negro Leagues." (These do NOT have to be the same facts you used for classwork.)
Today: 1) Review the article "The Negro Leagues." What are the most important facts to take away from this article?
