Eureka
Heights Elementary School pupils in Ms. Farkas' and Ms. Schoen's first-grade
class focused on the lives and accomplishments of Ruby Bridges, Harriet Tubman,
Martin Luther King Jr. and Rosa Parks during Black History Month.
The
vocabulary words that the class focused on were drawn Scholastic News issues
focusing on Black History Month, books that we're read as a class and mini
videos that helped the children relate to the struggles of the time through
age-appropriate songs and video clips.
The
class finished off the month by designing the Sharkus Bus, where all children
can sit wherever they choose!
Sayings
on the bus were quotes from the pupils:
- "Integration not Segregation"
- "Thank you Rosa Parks for not giving up your seat!"
- "Ruby Bridges was a hero!"
