Black History Month - Harriet Tubman

Lesson: History

Class: Rigby - Year 4 Year: 2023 - 2024

As part of Black History Month, the children learnt about Harriet Tubman and her role in the Underground Railroad Movement. The children also learnt how regular people helped the slaves travel from one place to another without getting caught and how they used secret codes to learn the route from one place to another. The children created a 'Freedom Quilt' based on the codes the slaves would have used to escape from their masters.
