Campamento de Lectura «Historias Ocultas»

Lectura de The Forgotten Girl de India Hill Brown.

Únete a nuestro campamento de lectura que explora la historia de una manera interesante y significativa. Aunque The Forgotten Girl de India Hill Brown parece al principio una historia de fantasmas, pronto revela una conexión mucho más profunda con el pasado. Después de caer accidentalmente sobre una tumba en un cementerio segregado y olvidado, los hermanos Iris y Daniel comienzan a investigar a quién pertenece la tumba y por qué el cementerio fue abandonado. ¡Ven a leer con nosotros y descubre aspectos de la historia afroamericana de Athens que muchas veces pasan desapercibidos!
En el Campamento de Lectura «Historias Ocultas», los estudiantes leerán, investigarán y conectarán la literatura con lugares reales de nuestra comunidad, incluyendo una visita a un cementerio histórico local.
Organizado por Sarah Conkin-Anderson en la Escuela Primaria Howard B. Stroud

Para todos los estudiantes del CCSD que vayan a cursar de los grados 4 a 6.

Hidden Histories Literacy Camp

Reading The Forgotten Girl by India Hill Brown

Join us for a literacy camp that uncovers history in a powerful, engaging way. At first glance, The Forgotten Girl by India Hill Brown may seem like a typical ghost story, but the story reveals a connection to history that runs much deeper. After accidentally falling onto a grave in a forgotten, segregated cemetery, siblings Iris and Daniel work to uncover who the grave belongs to and why the cemetery has been neglected. Come read with us and connect to Athens Black History in a way that is often overlooked!

Join us for Hidden Histories Literacy Camp, where students will read, investigate, and connect literature to real places in our community, including a visit to a local historical cemetery.
