Summary: |
|
| This story of women's suffrage in the U.S. concentrates on the early 20th century, although previous activities serve as a context. Illustrated with archival photos from the time,the book includes a chronology, bibliography, profiles, and other sources. | |
Teaching Ideas: |
|
| Readers could follow up with biographies of one of the women. The HBO show Iron-Jawed Angels, referred to at the end of the book,is an excellent reference and covers the same time period. Students may want to keep track of vocabulary-- some good civics terms here, and author does nice job of defining them in context. A League of Women Voters representative might visit programs to provide additional historical and current information about voting rights and responsibilities. Students may want to explore more about the ERA. | |
