Black History Month PowerPoint Lessons for Primary Grades

Celebrate Black History Month with this beautiful PowerPoint honoring notable African Americans in our country's history. Descriptions of each person are simply stated and easy to understand.

Students may read the slides alone, or with the class, or even copy the text on a take home worksheet or project. There are many ways you may choose to use this PowerPoint to enhance your lessons.

Slides include:

*Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

*Rosa Parks

*Ruby Bridges

*Thurgood Marshall

*George Washington Carver

*Colin Powell

*Harriet Tubman

*Barack Obama

*Mae Jemison

*Jesse Owens

Unlike most of the printable items available at my shop, the intent of this PowerPoint is to present factual information and real photographs, in a short and sweet visual format without clipart or other creative elements in the design that may distract students from the content. Please see the thumbnail images for slide samples so you know what to expect with purchase. :)

The font I used is Arial Black. Feel free to edit the font and the content for classroom use. Terms of use exclude editing for commercial use. Images are from the public domain.
