Week of February 4-8




Today we learned about Harriet Tubman and Sojourner Truth. We talked about their lives as slaves and leaders of the Underground Railroad. Many people consider them to be heroes. What qualities do you think a hero shows? Who is a hero to you?

  5. I think a HERO is when someone has did and amazing thing
    a person I know is a person we learned about
    Dr.Martin Luther King. He is my hero and it is very sad he
    got shot.He did some amazing things and I think everyone deserves a full life if they did all those things back then. If ever had to celebrate a HOLIDAY MLK day would be the one.

  11. This is something you don't see every day-Heroes running around saving people. For one your teacher is a Hero, but my important Heroes are my teachers, the Hospital and Scientists. Scientists are the most important Heroes to me Because they find cures for diseases so we won't be sick. They are brave Because they could drop a chemical and get sick and then the disease will spread all around the world, but they prevent that from happening.

  17. My hero is my dad beacuse he always help me when I need help, like when my tv fell down or the basketball goal fell down. He always have my back when im in big trouble or I diddn't do something. My favorite thing about my dad is beacuse he help me with my math and play games with me. He always keeps me safe and tells me things like do not lean in your chair and don't jump down the stairs.
