Ruby Bridges

A few weeks ago we started reading informational text over Ruby Bridges.  We read and discussed several types of sources and medias: articles, interviews, biographies, an autobiography, and artwork. We talked about that one event (or individual) can be presented many ways through the different points of view of the author writing about that event (or individual).  We disucssed the individual Ruby Bridges and the events that surrounded her life.  Students were put into groups where they compared and contrasted different media sources.  They then completed online venn diagrams to show their understanding.  I have put their venn diagrams on edmodo.com.  Be sure to check them out!

This link will ask you for a login: ask  your child for their login, or you can create your own!
