Black History Month Project (Test Grade)

The slide presentation/project  will be in the form of a time line consisting of earliest to most recent. It should be complete with dates and visual representations of the events that are listed below. Students are encouraged to use web based pictures and other media to represent the events and people involved. Please list and identify important people involved in each era. You should have at least two slides per era using at least one command term per slide.

Students must coordinate the time and events with each era with both the United States and Africa. 

Example: During the 1960's in the United States the  Civil Rights Movement was in full swing, at the same the African Independence movement was taking place in Africa to reverse the effects of European colonialism.

Apply the history command terms to each slide to help in  description of each era. This will be worked on in class as well as outside of class if necessary.
