In this course, we'll celebrate the current and past accomplishments of notable black children, men and women. We will use creative activities like scavenger hunts, science experiments, arts and crafts, performing arts, and music to highlight those who have excelled in categories like science, technology, engineering, arts, math, sports. activism, education etc. We may also read books and poems or watch short video clips pertaining to the subject to help foster appreciation and pride....
Learners will learn about notable people in the african diaspora.
In college I took African American studies classes. As a black American, I am embedded in the culture, but those classes helped me look even further into the figures who helped shape our our world. This exposure made me want to spark the same awareness and appreciation in our youngest learners through this class.
