What Other Teachers Are Saying About This Resource:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: Kaitlyn D. says, "Every year our second graders create a trading card for Black History Month. I was able to use one of these templates for this project and it made it so much easier for our class. Thank you!"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: Andree D. says, "Great resource! Engaging and designed well for all my students to be able to have success doing it. Loved the examples to show my students the difference between a well done one and a not so well done one."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: Ericka A. says, "My students loved this resource! We spent a few days researching and producing these trading cards— and they loved the autonomy I gave them with this activity. Even being able to customize the template and work on it using Google Slides was very engaging for them. The best part was that I printed them out, we colored them, and then hung them on the bulletin board outside the classroom so the rest of the school could see! It was a hit!"
