2/25/2016: Ready for Women's History Month?

We still have  the rest of February left to continue to celebrate Black History Month, but soon March, and Women's History Month will be upon us!  The official website http://womenshistorymonth.gov/ is full of engaging resources.   


My collection of leveled readers, "Famous Women in History" is an excellent way to build literacy skills while learning more about Women’s History.  This collection of leveled readers for second through fourth grade features stories about eight women and their contributions to history.  This series includes books on eight notable American women, including Clara Barton, Helen Keller,Eleanor Roosevelt and Sojourner Truth, among others.



Explore all of them on my Teachers Pay Teachers site:
Amelia Earhart -- Airplane Pilot (level L)
Abigail Adams -- First Lady & Crusader for People’s Rights (level L)
Clara Barton -- Founder of the American Red Cross (level N)
Maria Mitchell -- Astronomer (level N)
Helen Keller -- Inspirational Speaker (level O)
Ellen Ochoa -- Astronaut (level P)
Laura Ingalls Wilder -- Pioneer and Author (level P)
Millie Hughes-Fulford -- Scientist in Space (level R)
