This calendar activity from ReadWriteThink, reviewed here, provides a quick, classroom-ready introduction to Cinco de Mayo that blends historical context with an inquiry-based learning task. It explains the significance of the holiday, including the Mexican victory at the Battle of Puebla, and highlights how it is celebrated, particularly in the United States. The resource encourages students to move beyond stereotypes by researching meaningful aspects of Mexican culture, such as art, music, dance, food, or history, and then presenting their findings to the class. Designed as a short, flexible activity, it works well as a discussion starter or mini-lesson that promotes cultural understanding and critical thinking.

Step into the stories behind powerful works of art and discover how pictures can convey just as much meaning as words. The Historical Witness, Social Messaging curriculum from the J. Paul Getty Museum enables students to investigate how artists respond to real historical events, from struggles for human rights to changes in communities and cultures. With lessons organized into beginning, intermediate, and advanced levels, teachers can easily adapt the content for use in upper elementary through high school. This resource encourages critical thinking, discussion, and meaningful connections between the past and issues students see in the world today.

Present a powerful artwork from the resource and have students silently observe before sharing what they see, what they think is happening, and what they wonder. Students infer the person represented in the artwork and what message the artist wants viewers to understand. Have them write a short "artist statement" or a mini-narrative from the perspective of someone in the image. After discussing how art can influence social change, students can create posters with positive messages that support fairness, kindness, or community issues. They should explain their design choices and connect their posters to themes found in the original artwork. Make posters digitally using DesignCap Poster Creator, reviewed here.

This website features the annual Color Our Collections initiative organized by the New York Academy of Medicine Library. During the event, libraries, museums, and archives around the world share free downloadable coloring sheets and coloring books derived from rare-book illustrations, historical engravings, maps, anatomical drawings, botanical art, and other archival visuals. The purpose is to engage learners of all ages with primary-source materials in a creative and low-stakes way, encouraging exploration of historical collections while coloring. Teachers can use the materials as cross-curricular resources for social studies, science, visual arts, or literacy by having students observe details in the images, research their contexts, and then color and annotate them to deepen their understanding of the historical artifacts.
In the Classroom
After coloring, have students research the object, organism, or artifact featured on their page. They then write a short informational paragraph that explains its origin, use, and historical significance. Invite students to curate a classroom Pop-Up Museum. Students display their colored pages with captions, research notes, and fun facts. Have students choose a coloring page and complete a See, Think, Wonder observation prompt before coloring. They record details they notice, what they think the image represents, and questions they have about its time period or purpose.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Have students select a challenge card at random and attempt to prototype a solution using simple materials (such as paper, tape, and straws). After students pick a challenge, have them build a first version, then use their maker journal to reflect on what worked, what didn't, and what they'd change. Then have them re-design and rebuild.
