In Brunswick, Georgia, Altama Elementary School students were asked to name as many famous African Americans as they could. The names were written on the board. Next, students formed groups and were assigned the task of putting the people into the following categories: arts, entertainment, music, sports, politics, and science. They also were allowed to use reference materials to find additional African Americans for each category. Groups with the most names correctly categorized were announced. At your school, add to this activity by handing out items from the “10 Days In Black History That Changed Our Nation” Class Packs. Thank your teachers for their efforts with “Inspiring Moments In African American History” 2011 Calendars to hang at their desks.
