Presentation transcript:

The Underground Railroad An Integrated Literacy Approach

GLCE: 8-U4.3.2 Describe the formation and development of the abolitionist movement by considering the roles of key abolitionist leaders (e.g.,John Brown and the armed resistance, Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad, Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, and William Lloyd Garrison), and the response of southerners and northerners to the abolitionist movement.

This integrated literacy approach is designed to use: trade books, primary sources, interactive history websites, song lyrics, and an interactive map activity; to help students understand the importance of the Underground Railroad to the abolitionist movement.

The Drinking Gourd --F.N. Monjo 1970: Harper Trophy Inc. A young boy and his father help a family of slaves escape to freedom via the underground railroad

Journey Toward Freedom: the Story of Sojourner Truth Biography of Sojourner Truth, who was born into slavery, freed in 1827, and became famous for her courage, quick wit, and ready challenge as she campaigned for abolition and women's rights in New York and the Midwestern States.

Virtual Field Trip The National Geographic's Exploration of the Underground Railroad Most slaves did not choose to run away, and those that did had a very difficult time reaching freedom. The above link affords students an interactive journey on the Underground Railroad and a chance to make choices as the slaves who chose to run would’ve had to do.

Sojourner Truth --youtube A biography of the woman who started from slavery to become a formidable force in the push for women’s rights. “Ain’t I a Woman?” --youtube Alfre Woodard reads "Ain't I a Woman?", a speech delivered by abolitionist Sojourner Truth at the Women's Convention in 1851. Part of a reading from Voices of a People's History of the United States, February 1, 2007 at All Saints Church in Pasadena, CA.

The Slave Experience Response to Enslavement Listen to first hand account of life during slavery and reconstruction: an interview of former slave Laura Smalley. Consider the daily life decisions slaves faced. Students have the opportunity to explore different situations faced by slaves and answer the question, “What would you do?” Look at original documents: Such as a reward announcement for the capture of runaway slaves. See actual lyrics from “Song of the Abolitionist”

Underground Railroad Routes Interactive Map This link takes the student to an interactive map experience that will show them the various routes to freedom used by escaped slaves on the Underground Railroad. Included with the routes are questions that focus the student’s attention on where the escaped slaves wanted to end up, how far they had to travel, and the different routes that could be taken.
