Black History Month Trading Cards

Are you looking for a way to add interest to your Black History Month unit? Do you want to add more activities to your learning stations? Are you searching for a project which integrates learning and technology? Download my Black History Month Trading Cards package! Included is a set of 54 trading cards highlighting famous persons, places, events and court cases in Black History. These trading cards can be printed on card stock, laminated, and trimmed to produce a set of playing cards. The deck is divided into fours suits of thirteen with two jokers, allowing students to learn while playing any standard card game. Also included are the documents "Educational Trading Card Games" and "Creating Educational Trading Cards". The first document contains three original study games for classes and small groups. The second document gives teachers and students the step by step instructions required to create their own cards using an online resource. Enjoy!     Great quality color pictures when printed on card stock. My students love the information on the cards and the games they can play with them. GREAT product!! Great activity to get students interested in reading biographies. I used these as flashcards for my students to play games to practice these events and important people. Very cool!
