Black History Heroes

Worksheet Description

The “Black History Heroes” worksheet is a structured activity designed to educate students about notable figures in Black history. It offers a straightforward layout with space at the top for the student’s name, anchoring the assignment to the individual learner. The worksheet is segmented into three sections, each dedicated to a different historical figure. For each segment, there is a square outline where students can draw a representation of the person they are researching, integrating an artistic element into the learning process.

Each drawing space is accompanied by two lines: one for the name of the person and another with the prompt “About,” where students are expected to provide a brief description or key facts related to the individual’s life and achievements. This format allows students to engage with the material in a concise manner, promoting the summarization and distillation of information. The repetition of this structure three times on the page encourages comparative thinking, as students can explore the diverse contributions of various Black heroes. By reflecting on multiple individuals, learners can gain a broader perspective of the wide-ranging impact that figures in Black history have had on the world.
