African American History Timeline - Western Michigan University
Grades
4 to 12In the Classroom
Create small groups of students. From the menu on the left, click African American History. Under Browse Our Online Encyclopedia assign one of the Entries About...(People, Places, etc.) to each small group. Ask students to choose on topic per student in the group from their Entries About. After reading their encyclopedia entry and taking notes with an online tool like Simplenote, reviewed here, have them share the info they learned with their small group. Tell students to be sure to save the URL to share their notes and questions with you and their peers. Simple note allows you to access and update across all devices. If you have the time, you could then mix the groups up and have them share what they learned with the new group, thus giving students a little more knowledge about a huge topic: African American History.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
