Harriet Tubman-Conductor of the Underground Railroad
This activity is based on the biography: "From Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad" by: Ann Petry. I teach ELAR, and we read this text during our "Fight for Freedom" unit in the HMH textbook. I wanted to make something non-traditional versus the usual boring worksheet. To print you'd need to use size 8 x 14 paper. My students really enjoyed doing it and the aesthetic of it! *Updated*- I read your comments and added an answer key. Enjoy!
