Mindy's lesson

Nice job, Mindy. I'm going to add more "writing" to my unit on biography/time line. Your activity demonstrated for me how I could make the connection between the text, the time line, and a reaction piece to the text.

I loved the rich language and detail in the book you chose to use. I'm sure my students would enjoy this story as well.

Thanks Mindy for reminding me that I even at first grade I can use literature that exposes students to topics such as slavery. Great Lesson

Same here. I can see how I can use this type of activity to make the time line fun!

Now-Give Matt back his seat!
