US Grade 4 - 7
Black History Class 🖤also includes guided notes! 
Have you heard of gameschooling? Have a student who loves science? Or maybe they love gaming. Join this class to learn all about amazing figures from Black History who pioneered in these fields! Then we will have an optional Kahoot to make learning stick.

For this class students will 
Learn about the topic of Black History to include inclusive information about 
Influential Black people in the STEM fields. 
First we will have a lecture for 15-20 minutes then play a friendly game of Kahoot as a fun way to make the learning stick. 

Students may need some help from parents to set up another device or split screen to play Kahoot. 

Our  African American studies courses are designed to develop an understanding of the causes, character, and consequences of the African American experience and its influence on the world, the United States, and the African American community. Beginning with a historical, geographical, social, political, economic, and cultural understanding of the African continent, the course will provide a descriptive and corrective overview which will introduce the student to the study of the African and African American experiences.

We do a lot of discussion in this class. Oral discussion is a research backed way to help students build comprehension skills as well as develop and helping to retain information. I ask a lot of questions and may call on students to help build rapport and confidence. I encourage participation but am sure to be positive and kind when giving feedback. 
During undergrad and graduate school I took the following courses which make me qualified to teach this subject. I  have a degree connected to the topic they are teaching or additional training/education related to the topic. 

Intro to the Study of History 
African-American History 
World History 
American History 

During my college courses and afterwards I have also had to study the following books and taken Specialist Level Courses 
Through Our Own Eyes: A Journey into African American History by Joseph Edelin M.Ed.
African American History: A Journey of Liberation by Dr. Asante 
They Came Before Columbus by Ivan Van Sertima
Black Indians: A Hidden History by William Lorenz Katz 
A Young People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn
I have also completed a course using the textbook Classical Africa by Dr. Asante 
I have also studies the Black History Flashcards by Urban Intellectuals 
I have also studied and attended Kamali Academy with my own children to access a decolonized learning experience.

I have also completed this course: Unit 1: Ancient Africa - The Cradle of Civilization 
from  Education for Life Academy: Where Black History Lives 
As well as learned all the content in the African Studies Institute from the University of Florida found here https://africa.ufl.edu/outreach/teachers-institute/

I am a Florida certified guidance counselor with a Master's in School Counseling. My graduate degree required classes on issues of cultural inclusion, race, and diversity. I have also taught anti-racism during my time as a school counselor in public schools. 
Specifically I had to take:
Counseling Theories and Applications
Cultural Diversity and Advocacy
Mental Health in Schools
Counseling Children and Adolescents	
	


I am certified in the following:
School Counseling K-12
Special Education K-12
Elementary Education K-6
and was required to take classes on cultural competence, diversity, inclusion, and African American History while receiving my Master's so that I could teach students of marginalized groups.
 
 

I have a degree connected to the topic  I am  teaching and additional training/education related to the topic. (My Masters is in Guidance & Counseling with classes to include cultural competence, diversity, inclusion, and African American History from a Decolonized Perspective.)

Here is an optional handout for this course:
