Biography of Hariet Tubman

Publisher, Doesn't say.

Early Years: Write what you have learned about the person’s early years. How did these childhood experiences influence the person’s achievements as an adult?

I learned that in the early years, Harriet Tubman had very hard times. Harriet Tubman was a slave. She was also afraid to get seperated from her family. She also got sent to the Cooks that was even more worse than Mr. Brodess. Since they held church services, they knew a lot about God. Also, Harriet believed what the Bible said. The Bible said: All people were equal in the eyes of God. Thats Why she achieved when she grew up.

What were this person’s main accomplishments?

This is Harriets accomplishment. She wanted to be free. She thinks that the people that are selling or using black people are really rude. The white people are selling people baecause they are just different color. There is no problem with that. That is Harriets main accomplishments.

Describe the goals of this person. Do you think this person was successful? Why or why not? What factors influenced this person’s achievements?

Harriet wants to build a tunnel. She wants to build a tunnel to the north and most of all. She wants to build a tunnel for freedom. Harriet doesn't want to be a slave anymore. She wants to be free. Just like the white people. That is why Hariiet wants to build a tunnel. I think this person was very successful because when I just saw the cover, she was behind a tunnel to the north. That's why I think she was successful.

Yes, I would. I would because it is a great way to learn about Harriet Tubmman.This book also explains how Harriet Tubman was when she was a little girl. If you don't want to learn about someone else, go to Mr. Jacobson's classroom and
