Back to School Monthly Themes all underlined items are links ~ themes not underlined are not yet online I vary my themes a bit from year to year, and I don't usually teach them all every year. Because I often teach a multi-age K-1 class or loop from kindergarten to first grade then back again, I sometimes have the same children two years in a row. They enjoy revisiting familiar themes and stories, and there are always new activities, stories, and poems being added, which makes it extra fun. The students who stay with me for two years do the work on a much higher level than they did the year before, and get more from the experience. So for me, repeating the material has never been a problem. This is a general schedule of what I pick and choose from during the year. I usually work on two or more themes at the same time, and there's a lot of overlap in some areas. If the kids are REALLY interested in a particular area or theme, we spend more time on it and I eliminate or shorten something else. Many of the basic themes like colors and patterns are woven throughout the year, and many themes carry over from one month to the next. We also focus on one or two authors or story characters each month. If you know of any good resources I should add to my units, have a website or thematic unit you'd like me to link to, or have songs and poems to share, please send me a note at

He shouldn't watch a baseball game, track meet, golf tournament or a tennis match without discussing legendary Black athletes. Your child shouldn't pass a bus stop, lunch counter, water fountain or public bathroom without discussing the Civil Rights Movement. And your child definitely shouldn't leave the library or record store without knowing about famous Black icons in publishing and entertainment. The lessons of Black history are all around usand there is no better way to instill pride and confidence in your child than to teach him Black history early and often. "It's important to start teaching Black history to your children at the very beginning of their lives," advises Darlene Clark Hine, a Michigan State University professor of history and the president-elect of the Organization of American Historians. "Begin to tell them stories of people in our past who overcame whatever obstacles that were put in their way. This is a very good foundation for young childrenfor them to know that they are important and that Black people can do great things."

Spotlight on Mrs. Rosa Parks, Mother of the Civil Rights Movement "To this day I believe we are here on the planet Earth to live, grow up and do what we can to make this world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom." Mrs. Rosa Parks Mrs. Rosa Parks, born on February 4, 1913, has been called the "mother of the civil rights movement" and one of the most important citizens of the 20th century. On December 1, 1955, Mrs. Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat near the front of a Montgomery, Alabama city bus to a white passenger. The bus driver had her arrested for violating the law. Photo of Mrs. Parks at the height of the Civil Rights Movement "Differences of race, nationality or religion should not be used to deny any human being citizenship rights or privileges." By "sitting down" for what she believed in, and refusing to give up her bus seat, Mrs. Parks made history. The following night, fifty leaders of the Negro community (among them was the young minister, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.) met to discuss the issue. The leaders organized the Montgomery Bus Boycott that would continue until the bus segregation laws were changed. The citywide boycott of the bus system by blacks, in which they refused to use the bus for transportation, lasted for 382 days. It caused the bus company to lose a huge amount of money and changed America forever. In December of 1956, the Supreme Court decided that bus segregation violated the constitution. The Civil Rights Movement was put into motion, which led to the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Today all Americans, whatever their race, nationality, or religion, must be given equal treatment under the law.
