Terrific resource for Black History Month that can be used all month long, Plus two FREEBIES! Makes a great bulletin board too.
#elemchat #spedchat #sschat #blackhistorybla
I created 24 “Who Am I?” cards featuring African Americans, 11 women and 13 men, that can be played as a game or just enjoyed as fact cards. The cards are bright and attractive and include an African kente cloth border, image of each individual and 5 interesting facts.
The game can be played by 2 or more players. Students are given clues and the sooner they guess correctly the more points they earn. The game can be played daily, starting with a few cards and adding more as you go along. Soon you will be able to play with all the cards and students will be answering quickly.
I also added a template (2 sizes, color/b/w) so students can create their own “Who Am I?” card. Once they have chosen their subject they will need to add facts to their card. It’s not numbered so you can choose how many they add. You can add these to the game or even a bulletin board. Or if you prefer they could write a mini-bio of the African American they chose. The template is perfect for either.
…and because I used U.S.postage stamps for this packet I also included a template for students to create their own Black Heritage stamp. The U.S. post office allows stamps to be used freely for educational purposes.
Laminate the “Who Am I?” cards and your students will enjoy them for years to come!
Includes
24 colorful African American “Who Am I?” cards (3 1/2 x 5)

Eyercize…online speed reading tool.
#edtech #spedchat #literacy
I took a speed reading class in high school and it was very helpful. This is very similar to how we practiced. And it’s free!
You can add your own text and customize various aspects such as speed, text size, space between lines, how many words show at a time, etc.
I really like this tool and believe that students could benefit from using it. They could graph their results each time they use it to see their improvement.
Classroom Chaos: LESSON PLANNING: Foldables:
I am a sucker for foldables, I really am, but I have learned that it takes a greater deal of patience, time, and practice to even teach my students how-to learn and create various foldables. And so, I decided to share some of the resources I found online if ever you should want to create foldable…
