First, we studied George Washington Carver. We learned that George Washington Carver made many different things from peanuts and was often referred to as the "plant doctor". Students even went home and did some research on their own to see how many different things he created using peanuts. They brought their lists to school and shared them with the class.
Next, we learned all about Harriet Tubman. We learned about how brave she was. We also learned all about the Underground Railroad.
To conclude this unit we did group projects using the free app, ChatterPix. For this project, each group did some research on either Harriet Tubman or George Washington Carver. Next, they drew a detailed picture of their character. Last, they were able to make their characters come alive using ChatterPix.
