Your task: Follow the directions and templates below to create an iPhone for an African-American

historical figure. Your “History Maker” must be teacher approved.

Instructions:

1. Turn a sheet of white 11 x 14 paper sideways and fold it in half hamburger style.

2. On the front create the front screen of an iPhone like the example below. Fill up the half sheet and draw it neatly!

-Across the top of the phone write the name of the historical figure

such as “Thurgood Marhall’s iPhone.”

-Create a colored icon for each of the 6 apps. These should be historically accurate. Thurgood’s calendar would not say 2012!

-Draw a background image that would be appropriate for this figure.

This should be drawn in “behind” the icons just like on an iPhone.

3. Open your folded paper. Divide the back of the paper (the whole sheet) into 6 boxes like this

(the titles for each box are given to you, write these along the top of each box):

4. Each box will contain an “app.” Put them in the appropriate boxes. The instructions for each are:

a. Clock: Write the year the person was born, the year they died, and other biographical information about the person. Explain in at least 5-7 sentences.

b. Notes: Write a paragraph of 7-9 sentences about the person’s impact on history.

c. Calendar: List 5 of the most significant events of this person’s life. Include the date and brief description of the event.

d. Map: Draw and color a map of the region where this person worked to impact history.

e. Contacts: List two other historical figures, places or objects that would be linked to this person. Explain how they are connected. (5-7 sentences)

f. Photos: Draw and color a picture of the person (must be well done) -or- find and print a picture of the person.
