⭐ Get this Black History Month science activity at a discount in my Black Scientists Bundle!

EASY – JUST PRINT, CUT & ASSEMBLE!

Everything you need is included for students to create an African American Achievements in Science timeline or bulletin board. A variety of scientists are included with dates ranging from 1792 through today. Scientists represent a range of fields, including medicine, biology, physics, Earth, space, and chemistry.

This resource includes two versions:

  • VERSION 1: A completed timeline featuring 25 pre-made event boxes. You (or students) just need to print, cut, and assemble it. Perfect for differentiation!
  • VERSION 2: research version in which students research each scientist themselves. All names and important dates are provided. Great as a paired or group project!

Here’s the Process for Students:

  • Tape or glue together the provided timeline templates (5 – 8.5″x11″ sheets)
  • Attach biography boxes to the timeline
  • Enter the dates
  • Add pictures (provided) to each of the entries

What’s Included:

  • 25 Pre-made scientist biography boxes (for Version One)
  • 25 Biography prompts for students to research (for Version Two)
  • 25 Scientist pictures
  • Printable timeline template
  • Student instructions
  • Teacher instructions

Teacher Notes:

  • This project works well when assigned as a paired project.
  • As printed (several 8.5″x11″ pages), this timeline is more than 1 meter long, so it also makes a great Black History Month bulletin board.
  • NO COLOR PRINTING IS REQUIRED! The pictures look better in color but will print fine in black and white.
  • Please note: This Black History Month science activity is NOT editable.
