In this ongoing class, students will get creative while learning about revolutionary African/Black women. Each class, learners will learn about and discuss the impact of an African/Black woman in history. Instead of lecturing and taking notes, students will take what they learn from each lesson and create a pop-up art book dedicated to that special woman. Ms. Sydney will show students different pop-up art techniques, as well as provide relevant visual aids. This is a hands-on course, not meant for students to be sitting through a lecture that they will most likely forget! Ms. Sydney will also provide supplemental learning resources after each lesson so that the student can learn more about each powerful woman. Pop-up art books are a great way for students to think through early engineering concepts and will definitely provide the students with a unique challenge each week. No class will build upon the last, so come and go as you please! Each session will begin with a discussion question. Then Ms. Sydney will give a brief overview of the particular woman's life. Learners will complete a quick interactive activity. After, Ms. Sydney will demo the specific pop-up art lesson of that week while students follow along. As the students continue in their Work Session, Ms. Sydney will discuss the woman's impact, share visual aids about her life, and/or provide primary source materials from that woman. 

The class breakdown will go as follows with new pop up techniques each week!:
(9/5) Ella Baker
(9/12) Gwendolyn Brooks
(9/19) Amy Ashwood Garvey
(9/26) Carlotta



See you soon in this creative history class!
