In my district we use Reader's Workshop from the Teacher's College. 
-This unit can be completed during Reader's Workshop, Writer's Workshop and also during Social Studies. 
-Social Studies can be integrated for the history of these two women but also the history of the Civil Rights Movement and the affect it had on equality.
-For our informational unit, "The Story of Ruby Bridges" is used as a mentor text for students. 
-Ruby Bridges was a first grader when a judge decided that she would be the first African American student to attend an all-white school. Ruby is faced with angry mobs as she went to school for the first day. Ruby became an American Civil Right Activist. 
-The Story of Ruby Bridges about the young girls perseverance and forgiveness in the face of hate and racism.]]> 2017-10-06 22:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194864525 Instructional Activity krt33313 https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194866514 Students after reading about Ruby Bridges will demonstrate that they understand perspective and point of view.

They will then read article (resources 1, 2, and 3) to compare and analyze the different texts about Ruby Bridges. 
-Students will be asked to analyze and write a Text Dependent Analysis using the four texts. 
The questions can include any of the following: 
-What does the author want us to know/believe?
-Is the author's perspective different than other people's? How is the account unique?
-How does the author's explicitly state (or imply) the message? What techniques do they use to present it?

Text-to -text Connections: 
-What new information did you gain from each of the readings?
-How are the texts different from/or similar to on the same topic?]]> 2017-10-06 23:46:56 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194866622 Instructional Activity krt33313 https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194867020 Rosa Parks - teachers can utiliize Scholastic resources to teach about Rosa Parks and other great female role models. Scholastic has many resources to teach during Women's History Month.  
-Teachers can set students up with these resources on computers or iPads and allow students to gather information about Rosa Parks. They will then be able to use information about Rosa Parks and compare her to Ruby Bridges and the impact these women have made on history.]]> 2017-10-06 23:55:19 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194867020 Rosa Parks - BrainPOP krt33313 https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194867045 BrainPop has great information for students and allows them to gain information through fun, engaging videos.

They would then be able to use those graphic organizers to assist with writing their Text Dependent Analysis. ]]> 2017-10-07 00:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/194867627 Ruby Bridges krt33313 https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/195014519 I would use the clips and instructional resources to teach my 3rd graders about Ruby Bridges. I chose Ruby Bridges because she faced a lot of hate and injustices at such a young age. Young students have a greater chance of connecting to Ruby Bridges to understand what she has done as a Civil Rights activist. 
Ruby Bridges can teach students that young girls and women can stand up for what is right and can be the ones that are making a change in the world. Young girls and boys need to experience a positive female role model in order to understand the importance of equality. ]]> 2017-10-08 16:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/195014519 Rosa Parks krt33313 https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/195014881 I chose Rosa Parks because many of our students have heard about Rosa Parks throughout Social Studies curriculum. Rosa Parks is a great female role model for not giving up and fighting for what you believe in. Students can compare Rosa Parks and Ruby Bridges by making connections of what makes a role model. ]]> 2017-10-08 16:26:23 UTC https://padlet.com/krt33313/bbc8qfip11je/wish/195014881
