Rap a Tap Tap-Here's Bojangles!

Today we continued our Black History Month unit by reading a fun story about the famous tap dancer Bill Robinson; who was most famously nick named 'Bojangles'. Rap a Tap Tap-Here's Bojangles was a great book to read together. Not only were the illustrations amazing but story was a lot of fun. Afterwards we got creative (as we do) and made our own tap shoe!

Beginning of Black History Month-Garrett Morgan


Today marked the beginning of our Black History Month Unit!  Every couple of days we will learn about someone who has made an impact on the way we live. Today we learned all about Garrett Morgan, an inventor whose most famous invention was the traffic light. In honor of Mr. Morgan we made our own traffic lights! We talked about what it meant to be an inventor, what colors are in a modern traffic lights, which order they appear in, and placement prepositions (above, below, under), all while making our traffic lights. 















We are looking forward to what is to come this month! Mrs. B is most looking forward to teaching us about Harriet Tubman as our campus is full of such history as a last stop (and tunnel under state lines) of the Underground Railroad.
