Today in Year 5, we learnt all about the famous Jesse Owens. In groups, the children were able to create a presentation about a certain part of Jesse Owens’ life, all the way from birth to post-Olympic career. The children were shocked to find that due to Jesse’s skin colour, he was often dismissed or refused things. For example: Hitler refused to shake his hand at the Berlin olympics.
Dali class showed great compassion and interest in Jesse Owens’ life and we are looking forward to writing a biography on him later this week.
