Parent Guide > A Spectacular Ride
Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "A Spectacular Ride" by Drollene P. Brown.
In "A Spectacular Ride," a young girl must find a way to protect her village during the Revolutionary War.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of Community and Honor & Courage as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
"What is the importance of community?" and "What makes a hero?"
Ways to support your child:
-
Ask your child about this historical fiction at home:
- What was "A Spectacular Ride" about?
- What did you learn about Community?
- What did you learn about Honor & Courage?
- Watch Liberty's Kids 121 - Sybil Ludington at home with your child.
