FREEDOM QUILT Reading Class Quilt Black History Month Underground Railroad

This packet includes a rigorous reading passage and questions, an activity to create a class Freedom Quilt (a great hall decoration!), and optional YouTube video links to build background knowledge and get information from multiple sources (CCSS skill!).

What is a Freedom Quilt? Freedom Quilts were used as part of the Underground Railroad to communicate secretly when and where to travel. Using this passage and activity is a great addition to Black History Month.

This packet is easy, easy, EASY to use because everything you need is there...all you have to do is print and go!

This can be used as Morning Work, for homework, during Reading class time, Social Studies time, or for a substitute. It can be used over and over again each year. It’s a great way to efficiently use the limited amount of class time we have to teach reading skills AND history at the same time!
