⭐What Other Teachers Are Saying:

  • I am always looking for material to teach throughout the year about POC because one month a year about the same famous people doesn’t give my students a full understanding of their roots. This was perfect. Thank you!
    -Aimee
  • Loved this resource for my 4th graders, it was easy to get out to the kids and I paired it with the book. The kids enjoyed learning about all the different people.
    -Kimberly
  • We used the Pinna App to listen to the book and complete a person per day for the morning meeting. My students are so engaged and I love the conversations it has created every morning.
    -Amanda
  • Loved this resource as a companion to the book. The students, paraprofessionals and myself learned so many new things with this resource.
    -Melanie
  • These pages went perfectly with the book and allowed writing opportunities for the entire month.
    -Miranda
  • This resource is such an invaluable supplement to Charles Smith’s brilliant book. Thank you so much for sharing it!

    I really enjoyed this resource and so did my students. Very clear directions and paired very well with the book. Thank you!

  15. Cathy Gooding –

    I bought this book way before I knew anyone had created a resource for it. I LOVE IT. We are creating our own books. We won’t be able to get through the whole book, but we are trying hard. I love the fact that the book has Black Americans that are rarely heard about. The sheets don’t ask for a lot of info but ask them to pick the important info out. I like that. It is their work. I have even told the kids they could draw pictures instead of writing the information out. Thank you for this resource.
