When we were learning about the underground railroad I learned the different races in science. In history we learned about the north star and we learned about the different jobs that they had to do as slaves. In english we learned about their journey.We also learned about how they tried to escape and how they had to sleep in the woods. We also learned about the obstacles that they had to face. they followed the north star to get to the Underground Railroad. We learned how people would leave a light in their window so the slaves knew that it was alright to go to that house. They would stay there for a few days then countinue on thier journey. The slaves would have to try not to get themselves caught so that they would not get in trouble. We also learned inventions from back then such as the paper clip and the rubber band.
