Resources for February
For Your Instruction
Teaching from all aspects
Also, February is known as Black History Month. We usually talk about African Americans that have made an impact in our culture and that is awesome, but do you ever think that only talking about those life changers could be studied year round? Should we be intertwining that within the school year?
While I will be giving you some resources that include famous African Americans, I also want to encourage you to talk about ALL cultures throughout the year. If you are having the kids study people, do they all have to be assigned a famous African American? Or could they study several different people that have influenced them no matter what their culture is?
Just some things to think about....
