I used this bundle with my 5th graders for Women’s History Month and they were HOOKED! I was worried that the book might be too young for them, but they loved it. The writing pages provided easy differentiation for my students, and looked great hanging on the wall. Thanks for a great resource!

Such an amazing resource! I was excited to purchase anyway, but once I downloaded and saw how much information and activities were included, I was blown away. My kids loved being able to select which woman they were most interested in and also decide which sheet they would most like to work on. Thank you so much!
