Black History Month Lesson Plans for kindergarten through second grade. February is a perfect month to explore the genre of biographies. Learning about the courageous men and women in black history while diving deep into reading comprehension provides an ideal opportunity.
Historical Figures & Biographies
These are the three books we used to help guide our exploration into biographies:
We created book questions to help guide our conversations.
Biographical Timelines
Part of our genre study involved looking at timelines. We created our own to go along with each biography.
Then, students use these timelines to create their own versions. Here is the Rosa Parks version.
National Geographic books are filled with great information!
Students write their own reports after each book.
Each lesson is planned out for you… including a sentence study!
Reading comprehension and responding to literature at the same time!
Each biography offers the chance for students to learn and write about these historical individuals.
These activities are found in our Black History Month Nonfiction Reading Comprehension Unit.
