If you are looking for a way to teach your students about the history and significance of the civil rights movement in the United States, get this bundle of Civil Rights Movement Reading Comprehension passages. This will help to engage the students with high-quality texts and meaningful questions that will deepen their understanding and spark their curiosity, especially during Black History Month.

The passages are perfect for grades 4, 5, and 6, but can also be used for higher or lower grades depending on the students’ reading level and background knowledge.

This bundle contains several reading comprehension passages that cover some of the most important events and figures of the civil rights movement.

The passages included in this bundle are:

• The Civil Rights Act of 1964 & The Voting Rights Act of 1965: Engage the students with the landmark legislation that outlawed discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, and that protected the voting rights of African Americans and other minorities.
• Martin Luther King Jr. Day: These are 3 pages about the life and legacy of the most influential leader of the civil rights movement, and how his birthday became a national holiday that celebrates his vision of peace and justice.
• Rosa Parks and The Montgomery Bus Boycott: Learn about the courageous act of defiance by Rosa Parks that sparked a year-long boycott of the segregated bus system in Montgomery, Alabama, and that inspired a nationwide movement for racial equality.
• The March on Washington: The passage is about the historic demonstration that brought more than 200,000 people to the nation’s capital to demand civil and economic rights for African Americans, and that featured the famous “I Have a Dream” speech by Martin Luther King Jr.
• Brown v. Board of Education: Help the students learn about the landmark Supreme Court case that declared racial segregation in public schools unconstitutional, and that paved the way for the integration of education in America.

Each passage is followed by a set of questions that test the students’ comprehension, vocabulary, and critical thinking skills. In addition, each passage comes with an answer key that provides detailed explanations for each question.

This bundle can be used for whole-class instruction, small-group work, independent practice, homework, or assessment. It can also be integrated into social studies, language arts, or literacy units.

Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Jacob Lawrence Storefront Scene was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. It is best to use 18 x 24 white paper for this unit, since this will be a rather large artwork. This unit should last 4-(50 minute) class periods. I allowed the use of crayon for larger areas on the paper (like the sky, road, sidewalk, and buildings). I allowed the use of colored pencils for small, detailed areas. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Time allowance to complete:
5-10 minutes - read through the text individually.
40-50 minutes - answer questions using the text as guidance (including extension activity)

Time allowance to assess:
A class set of activities might take around 15-20 minutes to mark; the teacher can then send the students their marks automatically, which allows them to read back through their work. Nearly all answers are not automatically generated, but only require a small amount of work to assign points. This is because the aim is to get students writing answers and not to just have multiple choice options.

Please ensure when you download this resource into Google Drive that you are logged in to the gmail account where you wish to store the activity. In the past teachers have downloaded resources into their school account in error. Thanks :)
