Little Leaders Bold Women in Black History Interactive Fan

Description

You and your students will love this Little Leaders Bold Women in Black History interactive fan that promotes hands-on student engagement. It’s similar to other hands-on ways of engaging with material that you might be more familiar with such as foldables and flipbooks. This product was inspired by Vashti Harrison’s best-selling picture book “Little Leaders: Bold Women in Black History.” This resource would be a great way to help your students really think about these women’s lives after they read about them in the book. While the book is a great start for learning about these women, the fans require students to go beyond Harrison’s text. This learning tool is a great way to enhance your lessons and ensure your students know all about a diverse set of African American female leaders who have influenced the world in various ways. You can use the interactive fan in a variety of ways. You can lead students through the information needed, or students can do the research themselves instead. The fan can be printed in black & white or color, and it works with many different resources including textbooks, websites, and videos. The project is culturally relevant and would make an awesome Black History Month or Women’s History Month addition! Clear instructions are included.

For each person included, students will research information about:
-Education and Career
-Challenges they faced
-Accomplishments
-Personal Quote or Life Lesson Learned

These fans are interactive, student-friendly, promote comprehension, keep students organized, are self-paced, look great, promote creativity, and are easy to collect and assess. They can be used with any resource (textbook, website, etc.). For maximum durability, I recommend printing them on card stock, but regular printer paper works just fine as well.

I sincerely value your thoughts and would be extremely grateful if you could leave feedback after downloading this product. Thanks!
