Enrichment Update
This week Pine Hill second graders participated in an enrichment program about Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad.
During a one-hour presentation, an actress reenacted the story of Harriet Tubman by taking the children through the different phases of her life as a child slave born in Maryland in 1819, her marriage to John Tubman (a free African American), her escape from slavery in 1849 and her return south (19 times!) through the underground railroad to rescue hundreds of others from slavery.
The actor portrayed Harriet telling the story of her life in costumes reflecting the period. Through dialogue and demonstration, the children witnessed the hardships of a little girl on a slave plantation, separated from her family. The reenactment went on to show how Harriet was inspired to find a way out of slavery through the help of others and how she was later driven to help other slaves do the same.
The story of the Underground Railroad and the abolition of slavery is an important one in the history of our country and it shows how people like Harriet Tubman made our country a better place to live.
