The following standards are addressed during small group reading instruction. These skills and strategies may be practiced independently, but explicit modeling & guided practice in a small group or individual setting will be necessary for most students to be successful in mastering these standards.
READING WORKSHOP: SMALL GROUP & INDEPENDENT READING STANDARDS SPEAKING AND LISTENING CC3SL1 Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, & teacher-led) with diverse partners on grade 3 topics & texts, building on others’ ideas & expressing their own clearly. • CC3SL1a Come to discussions prepared, having read or studied required material; explicitly draw on that preparation &
other information known about the topic to explore ideas under discussion. • CC3SL1b Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g., gaining the floor in respectful ways, listening to others with
care, speaking one at a time about the topics & texts under discussion). • CC3SL1c Ask questions to check understanding of info. presented, stay on topic & link comments to remarks of others. • CC3SL1d Explain own ideas & understanding in light of the discussion.

Writing ConnectionsNarrative Imaginative – Directions included in assessment.AssessmentPretend you are a “way station” on the Underground Railroad and consider answering the following questions: Why would you risk your family to help strangers? What would happen to you if you were caught? How would you hide the runaway slaves? How would you help the slaves move on to the next safe house? This is a narrative supported with facts. Be sure to include the following:
Two facts about why you help runaway slaves.Two facts about what would happen to you if you got caught with runaway.Three facts about the physical condition of the runaways when they arrive.Three ways you help the slaves once they are in your house.A plan about how you will move them to the next safe house.
Write your own coded letter.Refer to Detailed Description of Lesson 18 for directions.
VocabularyUnderground Railroad freedomfugitive abolitionistconductor Slave LawNorth Star Drinking Gourd
Optional Assessment:Debate: Many people had difficult decisions to make about their roles in slavery and the Underground Railroad. Some ordinary people chose to help freedom seekers by providing food, clothing, and shelter to aid in their escapes. Others were more active participants who dedicated their lives to the cause. Other people were pro-slavery. Many were afraid to help runaway slaves because aiding them was against the law (Fugitive Slave Laws). Could you attend a church where the minister is breaking the law? Is it right to break the law when it is an immoral law? Are there other times in history when people have broken the law for a just cause? Have students debate these issues.
