Black History Month Endless Creative Writing Prompts
About This Product
Never come up with a creative writing prompt again with this Black History Month-themed storytelling unit! Using the 'somebody wants but so then' (SWBST) approach, this comprehensive LOW PREP resource includes Black historical figure character cards, creative writing graphic organizers, writing rubrics, and more.
It makes a great addition to your Black History Month unit study; writing lessons or centers; or social studies or history class. Perfect for first grade, second grade, and third grade classrooms, homeschool families, and cooperatives.
After printing the cards, select which graphic organizers you would like students to use, review the rubric with them, and send them off to write. This can be done individually or in small groups so they can bounce ideas off of one another. Students will submit their finished creative writing stories for teacher assessment.
