My second grade students recently did research on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. for African-American History Month. The online education program we used was pebblego.com. For students from kindergarten and 2nd grade this is a good resource. Students can have access to different biographies and read articles about famous historical figures. They can also have a chance to watch videos. When watching one of these videos we came across some footage featuring.
George Washington Carver
I was surprised to see this because I did not know there was a movie about him working in his lab. The site has its limitations, but for basic research where students can get basic facts about the the person or topics, it is very good. Other African-American biographies suitable for children in this age group are:
Harriet Tubman
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
With the research my students did we were able to make our February bulletin board. Below is the final product for a bulletin board idea. I hope you like it and if you do please comment and share. God bless....
