Thank you all for your kind replies. I am posting the replies without the names of the people who sent them. Hello If any of you has any ideas for Black History Month for kindergarten age and also for a Bulletin Board on the same subject. Something that kids can do (no quilt) Please share I will be posting it as a HIT if anyone will want it . Sincerely Madeleine Zember Kindergarten Center Hempstead School District New York 88888888888888888 Yesterday, I read them a biography of Dr. Mae Jemison and had them color a picture I found on line. It wasn't a very good picture because I blew up a thumb nail from an African American heroes coloring book 88888888888888 A wonderful list is at: http://dewey.asd.k12.ak.us/uhtbin/cgisirsi.exe/z8FsAhjTuT/LIBRARY_RE/315* *450088/1/1174/X 88888888888888888888888 Our Kindergarten teacher has students design a commemorative stamp (she gives each the paper with a "stamp" of about 9" square outlined on it ) for a prominent African-American. They have discussed many of these individuals in class as well, so students know something about each of the people who are being assigned. This is a take-home project, and parents are asked to help as well, so that it leads to discussion at home and family involvement, but the children do the art work themselves so the final stamps are usually very cute. It also lets the children make a connection between the accomplishments of the individuals and the way to depict it on the stamp. Then the stamps make a timely bulletin board. 888888888888888888888 Maybe you can do an African craft? Or read an African Folf-tale.. 8888888888888888888888 I do a Coretta Scott King Award bulletin board with an explanation of the award. Then, I put books out that have won the award. I do this in February since it gives a perfect opportunity to highlight the award and the students have also learned about MLK in January. And, most of the books deal with black history. 888888888888888888888 Perhaps you could use the faces of famous people on one side of a bullein board and what they were famous for on the other. Yarn could be attached to the faces and the kids would match the person and deed by hooking the yarn to the deed. 8888888888888888888888 http://www.kinderart.com/ http://www.kinderart.com/multic/mlkjr_crayons.shtml Hi, I found and used the lesson plans for *The Crayon Box That Talked* with the crayon pattern with first graders. The crayon box bulletin board looks great and is very appropriate for Black History Month as well. Good luck. 8888888888888888888 Madeleine Zember Kindergarten Center Hempstead School District New York -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
