In Their Likeness

Students at Krause Elementary School in Brenham, Texas, studied a different famous African American every day during the month of February. Next, each student selected one person to write a research paper on. Barbara Jordan, Stevie Wonder, Oprah Winfrey, and Colin Powell were some of the people chosen. Then the students went a step further. They created dolls resembling their research subjects. The dolls had photos for heads and bodies made out of paper or cloth. At your school, use the “African Americans Of Character” Poster Set and the “African-American Leaders Of Today” Poster Set to provide examples of noteworthy people to make into dolls.
