Seesaw Resources

Seesaw shares 30 interactive Black History Month activities, but feel free to search the Seesaw Community Activity Library for more activities. I especially like this activity that has scholars create a video reaction to BHM read alouds (all read alouds have been unblocked). 

20 Resources from PBS

PBS curates 20 resources (most including lesson plans) that address subjects in Black History from the Civil Rights era to recent history.

Science BHM Resources from ScienceNetLinks

Science lessons from ScienceNetLink that are interesting, but not most resources are geared towards 6th grade and beyond.

Teaching ideas, history video lessons, and webinar opportunities for teachers interested in teaching about Black History.
