Black History Month Activities - Rosa Parks Emergent Reader
By Dovie Funk
This is a seven-page booklet about Rosa Parks that will be a great addition to your study during Black History Month. It is ideal for young readers because there are only one or two sentences on each page. The booklet comes in two sizes: half pages (to save on copies) or a full size page booklet for easier coloring. There is also a color version that can be used as display posters. I have also added a page of five review questions. (optional)

Martin Luther King, Jr. Interactive Lapbook Storyboard Graphic Organizer MLK
By Dovie Funk
My students LOVE interactive storyboards! This activity would be a perfect way to finish up your study over Martin Luther King, Jr. It includes open-ended questions, vocabulary and a timeline to list five important events in MLK's lifetime. Children are very creative and can use the artwork and their own imaginations to embellish and make it their own. I use file folders as the base but large manila or construction paper can be used as well. I've included pictures to give you an idea of how to arrange it.
