Black History Reading Comprehension: Nearpod Games, Activities, and Printables

Black history month is coming soon in February! In this one-time class, kids will learn about Benjamin Banneker, a great scientist who invented the clock and designed Washington, DC. Learning will be reinforced with fun Nearpod games, two coloring pages, and a hands-on activity. During this session, students will read Mr. Banneker's story and answer game-based questions to check their comprehension. Students will also learn a reading comprehension tip they can use for standardized reading tests and quizzes in school (and homeschool) while exploring the awesome contributions of Benjamin Banneker to our world. There will be a hands-on project to help kids remember what they just learned. This highly interactive class is designed to improve students' reading comprehension skills and explore a great black scientist.
