Women&#;s History Month Activities (With a Writing FREEBIE)
Women&#;s History Month is throughout the month of March. It is essential that we as educators, help teach our students the importance of women in our history. Teaching each of these influential women and their impact on history will make a lasting impression on your students!
Women&#;s History Month activities are one strategy to accomplish students learning.
Today&#;s blog post is all about reading resources for Women&#;s History Month!
We&#;re going to look at fantastic read-alouds or picture books, some more advanced chapter books for higher readers, online materials to learn, and some resources from TPT you can grab!
Read Alouds and Picture Books
These are great books to either read to your class aloud or put into student reading centers to read on their own or with partners.
Some are specific to important women in history and areas of study, while others focus on women in history in general. The texts below are linked to affiliate books on Amazon!
Online Videos and Materials
Very similar to my Black History Month blog post from last month, two websites are simply incredible for teaching biographies.
These two websites are my go-to&#;s for science and social studies topics.

Women&#;s History Month Activities Freebie
This freebie will help students connect learning about strong women in historical and present times with women in their own lives.
They will choose a strong woman that they know, whether it&#;s a teacher, tutor, friend, mother, sister, cousin, etc. Then, they will illustrate them, describe them, identify why they are strong, and identify what they would like to say to them.
