Black History Month Social Studies - History. A nonfiction story, activities, printables, worksheets and crafts for pre-k, kindergarten, first, second and third grade.

Hey everyone!

We are only one day away from Black History Month. This is a very important, but also sometimes challenging to explore topic, for teachers and parents of young learners.

In order to make it easier to approach this subject, I created a unit suitable for children in pre-k to third grade. It includes an age-appropriate non fiction story, which explains Black History Month in a simple and comprehensive way. It also talks about important African-Americans.

Additionally, this unit contains 17 unique templates for craftivities to help the children remember, practice writing and better comprehend the important achievements of these people.

You can print the story or use with your laptop, projector or Ipad.

There are 17 graphic organizer (was, had, wanted) cards for each character mentioned in the story.

There are also 2 worksheets with a writing and a matching activity.

The story is in color while the craftivities templates and worksheets are in black and white.

How to:

1. Choose the worksheet you want the children to work on.

2. Let them first color/draw.

3. Print the images for the specific worksheet you chose.

4. Let them count, cut and paste the number of items asked by the worksheet.
