A Celebration of Black Geographers & Their Accomplishments!

Geography seeks to study our planet and tell the stories of the people who inhabit it. But what stories are told? And who is chosen to tell them? Throughout history, often Black geographers were not given credit for their explorations and discoveries. This is a great lesson for geography for Black History Month.

1492: Among the crew on the Santa Maria during Christopher Columbus's voyage to the Americas is Pedro Alonzo Nino, a black man. Africans also accompany Ponce de Leon, Hernando Cortes, Francisco Pizarro, Hernando de Soto, and Francisco Vasquez de Coronado in the early 16th century and it is said they helped with the discoveries.

This lesson brings to light and gives credit to 14 Blacks who were geographical explorers throughout history. Students also have the option to choose to research a past or present geographer outside of those specific to this lesson, which gives them student autonomy and ownership of their learning..

The learner will:

• Gain a greater understanding of Black geographers / explores contributions and role in history.
• Analyze how Black explorers impacted the occupations in geography.
• Gain an understanding of how unnoticed black geographers aided in creating a passageway for following Black generations to appreciate geography.
• Understanding how the Black populations have impacted and continue to impact geography.

This lesson includes:

• Suggested videos for an introduction (Not required)
• Detailed-teacher instructions including preparation, materials needed, procedures, and game instructions.
• Group or Individual Activity
• Research guide
• Exit cards

Perfect fun activity for children to do, and learn about a big World out there, and enjoy themselves!

Students love to learn about other languages. The six Sotho words on this classroom poster

• are often used by teachers
• all rhyme with each other
• are easy to remember
• are words applicable to everyday life
• can be used in every classroom
• are given to you in their original spelling and phonetic spelling.

I am a Sotho speaker and I can promise you, since I put up this poster in my class, students use the words daily, they are interested in this tiny and unknown country, and they feel like linguistic giants (tongue in cheek).

You may also want to put these up in your Class!
