This book tells the story of Mandela, a global icon, in poignant verse and glorious illustrations. It is the story of a young boy's determination to change South Africa and of the struggles of a man who eventually became the president of his country by believing in equality for people of all colors.

Published in 2013 this story highlights the life of Nelson Mandela. He fought for freedom and desegregation of South Africa. He was prisoned again and again and never gave up. Nelson Mandela is a great role model and leader, I think this story was great. The illustrations were also beautiful.

Biography and was written in 2013. This book is all about Nelson Mandelas life from upbringing to becoming president of Africa. He spent his entire life trying to help and free the people of South Africa. He spent years and years in jail for just speaking his mind of what the people needed.

Nelson Mandela by Kadir Nelson is a biography of the great man, Nelson Mandela, with captivating vocabulary and stunning illustrations. After winning an NAACP Image Award in Outstanding Literacy for Children, Nelson Mandela is a perfect book for an RA. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Nelson-Mandela-Activities-1044407

audrey.wilson This lesson plan concludes the use of this book as an introduction to Black History and a creative writing assignment. ESOL 6 and 16 follow this book; since it is a biography that will be followed up with context related material, comprehension is vital! 5y
audrey.wilson UDL 8.2 and 7.2, since Black History and oppression is heavy and requires a delicate touch (depending on the grade), I find these UDL guidelines to be of most importance here. #LAE3414sp19 5y
DrSpalding Is Kadir Nelson your author study author? I believe someone signed up for him. Excellent post and biographies are extremely important for our young learners. 5y
dayuso1 I checked out the resource you linked. Great idea to link creative writing extension activities with a NF biography. This helps kids not only retain information, but use their imaginations as well! 5y
kennedimartin @audrey.wilson this book looks like an awesome addition to any teacher‘s classroom library! It‘s so important to show the diversity of your own classroom in the book selection allotted for students in their own classroom library. Thanks for sharing! 5y

Clare-Dragonfly Ooh, getting fancy with your lettering! I like it! What are you using to write on? Post-it notes? 6y
Purrsistently @Clare-Dragonfly yes, they are post it notes. I finally got a bullet journal and was playing around with lettering to use in there ^_^ 6y
Clare-Dragonfly Awesome! I've been thinking of copying your idea with my own handwritten quotes—sounds like a great excuse to play with lettering. 6y

Purrsistently @Clare-Dragonfly it is fun- and a good exercise for me. I used to draw a lot but then damaged a tendon and I still don‘t seem to have the same control I used to. 6y
tracey38 Great idea. I have been wanting to learn calligraphy and lettering. 6y
Purrsistently @tracey38 it‘s so fun! I just browse through pinterest and try to copy different styles 6y
tracey38 @Purrsistently cool. I hadn't thought to use pinterest! 6y

Nelson Mandela by Kadir Nelson is a NF, Coretta Scott King Honor book
that could be used as a PR. This book tells the story of Nobel Peace
Prize winner, Nelson Mandela. This is a great way to introduce such an
important person in history. This book contains vocabulary that may
not be familiar to students so the UDL principle 2.1- clarify
vocabulary and symbols & EL 5- teach technical vocabulary supporting
key concepts would be beneficial for this

JocelynNolton book. This is a link to a
lesson plan and activity that students can do to celebrate Mandela day
which is only July 18th

"Rolihlahla played barefooted
on the grassy hills of Qunu.
The smartest Madiba child of thirteen
he was the only one chosen for school.
His new teacher would not say his Xhosa name.
She called him Nelson instead."
Free verse outlines important moments in Mandela's life within context of South African politics. Paintings glow in warm colours; brown faces & hands dominate pages. #diversepicturebooks
