This week, your student will start learning about Frederick Douglass. Frederick Douglass was born into slavery and escaped when he was 21 years old. Some of the material your student will be learning about will involve slavery. I encourage you to have conversations with your students about this sensitive topic. 3rd graders usually become very interested in what slavery was, why it was happening, and how Americans could allow such a thing to go on.
Cobb Digital Library has a great biography on Frederick Douglass that you can use as a resource in helping your student understand this important American Hero. Follow the link below to Cobb Digital LIbrary/MackinVia. Once inside, go to the group "3rd Famous Americans" and search for Frederick Douglass.
