Buffalo Soldiers Project

Project Guidelines

Create a presentation to answer the following questions:

• Who were the Buffalo Soldiers?
• How are they an important part of history of the United States?
• How did they come to be known as "buffalo soldiers"?
• What was life like for them on the frontier?
• What were some of the most well-known regiments, soldiers and forts?
• In what wars did the Buffalo Soldiers fight?

You may choose the format for your presentation. Some suggestions are Prezi, Glogster, Museum Box, Google Docs Presentations, or Animoto (You can find links to these sites  in the list of links to the left of this page.)
