History Lesson 2

In history we are continuing the theme of individuals who made a significant difference to others through their own actions.

Linking to the national discussion about whether we should have statues of people linked to the slave trade in our cities, we are going to look at the life of Harriet Tubman who was herself born into slavery.

Firstly, you should watch the BBC Teach History dramatisation of Harriet Tubman’s life which can be found at

https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/class-clips-video/true-stories-harriet-tubman/zbh8mfr

Challenge 1

Now watch the film again but this time, take notes to help you understand the important dates, places and events in Harriet's life.

Challenge 2     Complete challenge 1 and then:

Create a timeline of the important dates, places and events and add to this other information gleaned from your own research using the internet. A good place to start would be www.ducksters.com/biography/women_leaders/harriet_tubman.php

Challenge 3     Complete challenges 1 and 2 then:

Finally if you’ve enjoyed learning about Harriet Tubman there are some fun activities which include an online crossword, word search and quiz at the bottom of the Biography on the Ducksters webpage, again at www.ducksters.com/biography/women_leaders/harriet_tubman.php

RE

Last week you learned some metaphors used in the Bible to describe Jesus.

This week, I would like you to think about yourself.  What metaphors would you use to describe yourself to others? Try to include images that reflect your beliefs and values as well as your personality, hobbies and interests.

Draw three or four different images and write a brief explanation of why you chose them.
