Scientist Biographies #1: 24 STEM African, Black, and African-American Scientists Research Templates

24 scientist biography research templates about important African, Black, and African American scientists. Great for Black History Month or using as a class bulletin board. Research projects can be done as a single page or extended using the optional 2nd page. Includes two designs for each page with different questions allowing you to customize the project to your student's needs. Each worksheet includes a photo of the person. The product also includes a curated bibliography of books about these scientists to check out from your library to help with student research.

Teacher notes give information about the area of research for each individual, date of birth, ethnicity, if they have won a Nobel Prize, or if they are a person with a disability.

To asso help you determine which scientists will be easier for your students to research I have indicated if they have entries in Encyclopedia Britannica (our school has a subscription but many entries are free), in Biography.com , in the book:Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World. By Ignotofsky, or in African and African American women of science. By Bernstein, Winkler, & Zierdt-Warshaw.
