Women's History Month is upon us!
How do you celebrate in the classroom?
I love to start with books! I read books by women and about women. I read books about women's stereotypes, and books about women's struggles. We explore biographies about famous women.
And we talk. A lot! We talk about the women they know, and the women they've heard of. We talk about what it means to be a woman and what makes women powerful!
Claudio from Two Boys and a Dad has many suggestions, for books about women in this post: Inspiring Women Children's Books
Brenda from Enjoy Teaching has a great post with great strategies to help empower our girls: Three Ways to Empower Girls in the Classroom
Michelle from Teaching Ideas for Those Who Love Teaching has some delightful ideas for celebrating women, including book ideas and integrating history with this post: Celebrating Women's Accomplishments
Here is one of my own posts, with several book ideas, and inspirational quotes by several famous women.
Here's another one of my posts, reminding teachers (and students) that we are all unique individuals, and that needs to be celebrated: Diversity Matters! Celebrate Our Differences!
Here's a fun resource to help celebrate Women's History Month:
