What is the Black History Month Collaborative Coloring Poster?
⌄
Twenty-five pages after the cover. The teacher page has four steps, a numbered map of the poster and a one-line note on each of the 8 people from left to right. The 24 tiles each show the tile number, a small map with its place in red and a name line. Tiles 1 to 12 form the title row and tiles 13 to 24 form the portrait row.
Can I use the Black History Month Collaborative Coloring Poster at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many 2nd Grade to 5th Grade Black History Month resources are there?
⌄
2 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 31 Black History Month resources in all, from Preschool to 5th Grade, gathered on our Black History Month activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Black History Month resources for?
⌄
These are written for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 7-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Black History Month resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 2nd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
