Harriet Beecher Stowe Black History Month in the United States and Canada originated in 1926. At that time, historian Carter G. Woodson designated the second week in February as a time to commemorate the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. In the 1970s, the celebration extended to cover the entire month of February. Although all history should be taught the whole year, you can create lesson plans that you can do with your children focused on Black History Month. Make sure the lessons are age appropriate. I've tutored literature and history classes off and on for more than a decade, so I love to get students writing. My lesson plan for high school students includes reading books pertaining to black history. My suggested reading list consists of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" by Harriet Beecher Stowe, "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave," "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl" by Harriet Jacobs, "Coming of Age in Mississippi" by Anne Moody, "The Ways of White Folks" by Langston Hughes, and Zora Neale Hurston short stories. Write an essay comparing and contracting two works, look for corresponding themes, or analyze motifs, imagery or how the writer's life influenced the book. For example, how does Harriet Beecher Stowe, Frederick Douglass and Harriet Jacobs's vision of slavery differ based on race and gender? How do the works of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston portray the Harlem Renaissance?

Extractions: Design a Postage Stamp for Black History Month Some people buy special postage stamps called commemorative stamps, because they make their personal correspondence more distinctive and colorful. Others use them to honor people, places, or events, or they like to support the causes represented on the stamps. Since February is Black History Month, we'll celebrate by designing commemorative postage stamps in honor of the contributions of black Americans and the important events associated with their history. In 1940, the image of Booker T. Washington, an educator, was depicted on the first stamp issued in honor of a black American. Since that time, many others have been honored for their important contributions in fields such as civil rights, science, medicine, sports, art, and music. Some of them include Harriet Tubman, abolitionist; Billie Holiday, jazz singer; Ralph Bunche, statesman and Nobel Peace Prize recipient; Martin Luther King, Jr., minister and civil rights activist; Jackie Robinson, baseball player, and Madam C.J. Walker, entrepreneur. The designers who create the art and lettering for postage stamps show their work in an international gallery, of sorts. Although their finished art appears much smaller than the originals, their works travel to countries all over the world in the form of stamps. In addition, millions of people collect the little masterpieces in stamp albums. Imagine how exciting it must be to know that a world-wide audience can see your drawings or paintings! Now imagine that you're an artist who has been selected to design a new postage stamp honoring a black American or an important event or place. Who or what will you draw or paint?
