Jane Addems

Today we watched a story about Jane Addams on story line online We did to do a series of questions my favourite part was when she built the playground 

Here they are 

Six important facts about Jane 

When she was a kid she had/her dad had a lot of money 

The hall house she started was 18 of September 1889

Her dad died in 1881

She went to Rockford female seminary 

She opened Hull house in Chicago for poor people to come to

She left the door unlocked so anybody could come at any time 

She didn't like receiving presents - she gave them away


5 questions you would have asked her 


Why did she help the poor?

What inspired you to help them?

What happens to your mother?

If this didn't work out what was would of you done 

What it fun to help them?


Time line 


She grew up passing homeless/unfortunate people 

She would sneak out with her step brother to got climb things and explore 

She finished school but didn't know what to do 

Her father died 

Two years later she travelled to Europe 

Seen people pleading for food etc 

Travelled back to London 

She built a house for people in need 

Then brought some land for a playground 

And then built more and more house to more people could be in need


Here is a picture of her:
