About This Lesson
A Voice for Those Whose Stories Were Not Always Told in Official History
The United States is a country built by immigrants and diverse communities. Let's celebrate with our students this cultural richness and the social progress that comes from many different backgrounds.
These educational activity books introduce 120 inspiring individuals through mini-biographies and logic puzzles. Students will learn about inventors, healthcare professionals, NASA specialists, leaders in government and business, and activists whose work continues to strengthen and enrich our society.
In the United States, certain months are dedicated to the heritage or history of different groups as part of a national effort to recognize, honor, and highlight the contributions of communities that have historically been marginalized, ignored, or underrepresented. These commemorative months are officially proclaimed by the federal government and are often accompanied by educational programs, cultural activities, and reflections on the past and present. Use this book to engage your students in this celebration of diversity in the United States.
