Chasing Freedom

pick

This Biography book about two of the women who championed anti-slavery and women‘s suffrage is perfect for ELA infusion is social studies. This book has a lesson plan from the publisher https://www.nikkigrimes.com/images/pdf/ChasingFreedomClassroomGuide.pdf that is quite heavy on reading and writing. As far as ESOL modification go, 29 and 31 would be perfect. They both involve modifying content and instructions in simpler English.

ebrown The provided lesson plan is compliant with UDL strategies for perception (1.1-1.3) offering alternatives for auditory and visual information. #ucflae3414f19 5y

Chasing Freedom | Nikki Grimes

pick

A beautifully illustrated children's book with brief biographies of the lives of Harriet Tubman and Susan B. Anthony, written as an imagined conversation between the two women before a women's rights meeting in 1904.

Chasing Freedom | Nikki Grimes

so-so

Interesting idea having Harriet Tubman and Susan B Anthony reminisce about their lives. Transitions from one's story to the other is awkward and sometimes jarring. A reader will learn more about each woman but it's the context of the premise that's odd.
