Week 24: Building Our Underground Railroad

Weekly Centres
February Portfolio Writing
We added another page to our Portfolio this week!  With over half the year gone, it's neat to see how far we've come with our drawing and printing.

Harriet Tubman Books
We started colouring books about Harriet Tubman, with interactive pieces that involve Harriet hiding in various spots.  Next week, we'll be building the books with our Reading Buddies!

Weaving Pattern Quilts
Using strips for construction paper and glue, we "weaved" together quilts with multi-colour patterns.

Jigsaw Maps
We took a variety of Underground Railroad maps that Mr. McCullough had cut up and put them back together, using our jigsaw puzzle building skills!

Building and Underground Railroad
Using "action figures" and some of our blocks, we created "hiding spots" in our block centre and role played escaping from the Southern USA to Canada!
