Black History Month Bulletin Board Biography Research Templates bundle

Are you looking for a Black History Month research project that can also double up as a meaningful bulletin board display? This Black History-themed Biography Research Bundle includes editable flipbook/interactive notebook templates that guide students through researching and writing about influential Black History figures.

Students have a choice to research 31 notable figures; they use guided prompts to record key facts and then organize their learning into a clear, well-written biography. You may display each completed research project on a bulletin board. The templates may also be assembled into flipbooks, added to interactive notebooks, or submitted digitally, making this resource flexible for a variety of classroom settings.

Students may also use the editable flipbook templates as a drafting tool. As students research, they collect and organize information directly in the flipbook. They then use this draft to self-edit and peer-edit before publishing a polished final biography on the included lined writing pages.

Designed for Grades 3–7, this bundle supports key research skills, informational writing, and social studies learning while helping students create engaging, display-ready work for Black History Month.
