3/16/2015: Amelia Earhart and Women's History Month

March is well under way, and I hope that you have been enjoying some interesting Women’s History Month lessons with your class. The official website http://womenshistorymonth.gov/ is full of engaging resources.  For example, your students can use the Smithsonian X 3D Explorer to take a virtual look at Amelia Earhart’s Flight Suit

Your class can also learn more about this ground-breaking female pilot in my reader “Amelia Earhart - Soaring High.”

March is the perfect time to share my collection of leveled readers Famous Women in History: Leveled Books for Grades 2 - 4 with your class.  This series includes books on eight notable American women, including Amelia Earhart, Clara Barton and Helen Keller.   My Teachers Pay Teachers site also includes individual readers on other remarkable women such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Sojourner Truth, among others.
