Some fifth grade social studies textbooks only provide one page for the whole entire aspect of slavery. So they probably never would go into this much detail about Harriet Tubman.

It eliminated some of that single story that traditional textbooks give. We didn’t know her real name wasn’t harriet nor that she did any of those other things.

It is similar by how it discusses her involvement with the underground railroad. It is different because it gives different background knowledge prior to and after the underground railroad. Much of the background and period discussing her youth are left out of the history books.

Difference is there are a lot of images that take up the whole page. The images are very artistic and show illustrators style. The words are more melodic where a textbook is very clear cut.

While still giving facts, it’s giving the information in a way that makes her appear to be more human. It paints a picture of something that you can see rather than just spitting facts from a textbook.

I would hope this book inspires or challenges kids to ask questions, such as: was Harriet Tubman, really a general? Did she really lead a battle of several hundred slaves? I think the kids would be impressed to do their own research to prove or disprove all of these roles that Harriet Tubman played.

It supports students learning and student engagement because it provides background knowledge and information that leads up to her contributions to history. It goes farther on to discuss the outcomes of the contributions and movements that she aided. Such as, how slaves ended up being freed.

This book is similar to a traditional textbook segment because it is factual and contributed to our prior knowledge. It acts as a mentor text more than just a textbook itself. The book also gives the readers an emotional connection to Harriet Tubman through the imagery, something that a traditional textbook doesn’t do. We also never knew that she went by different names, something that our textbooks may have left out.

It gives more insight to who she was as a person and also what she did to help others around her.

Easier to compare and contrast what they have learned across texts. This book shows her as more of a whole person. Students might be able to connect with this style more. For students with a preconceived notion that they don’t like history- more theatric.

Textbooks may include more general background knowledge and may talk more about the Civil War where the book gives a more general idea of Harriet Tubman along with full detail of her story. These books tend to also be more engaging to students.
