Black History from a Decolonized Perspective Curriculum: A Research Guide and Portfolio of Learning. Perfect for grades 2nd to 9th for homeschoolers, classrooms, and learning communities.

Tired of your child learning only about European, white-washed history? Use this guide to study Black History and to research key people, countries, and events of OUR History. This is a research journal and a great companion to our class. The goal of this guide is to encourage critical thinking, deepen understanding, and increase pride in our cultural history. It is also a great way to teach our students in grades 2nd through 8th how to research. This is so important for raising our black and brown children and also incredibly important for raising allies.

Are you in our Black History from a Decolonized Perspective course on Outschool and want your child to have a place to take notes, add projects, and have a beautiful portfolio to show all of their work at the end of our program? This is great for homeschooling families to keep a record of what they learned over 8 weeks of our live classes. Or you can extend the learning even more as there are so many different activities and content to study deeper in each module. Each module coincides with our live lecture, projects, and discussion questions with fun and hands-on ideas to extend the learning even further. Each chapter of your child’s portfolio will have up to 15 pages of activities and notebooking pages for your student to really make learning stick. That means they will have over 90 pages of learning!

Here are the chapters for each module your child will complete while working through this activity guide.
