Lesson Idea: CELEBRATE Black
History - African American Awareness Month
-
First, have the kids each
create a BioBoard (a mini bulletin board) about a famous African American. Hang the finished bioboards in your
classroom. Do this towards the end of Jan, or during the first week in
Feb.
-
Meet the "Boards"
- Select one or two "boards" per class, all month long. Have
each author introduce their "friend" - whoever they selected
to feature on their bioboard - to the class. Each presentation should
be about 1-2 minutes. (When you present your "friend",
pretend you know them. Introduce your friend with warmth and delight.
Use words like Honor, Courage, Generosity of Spirit, Talent, Success,
Achievement)
