Four pages after the cover: 2 pages of fronts with 4 postcards each and 2 pages of backs with Dear and To lines and a stamp box. The 8 women are Sojourner Truth, Rosa Parks, Shirley Chisholm, Mary Church Terrell, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Abigail Adams, Mary McLeod Bethune and Phillis Wheatley, and each quote lists its source and year.
Can I use the Women Change the World Postcards at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 3rd Grade to 5th Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

20 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 65 Women's History Month resources in all, from Kindergarten to 5th Grade, gathered on our Women's History Month activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Women's History Month resources for?
⌄
These are written for 3rd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 8-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Women's History Month resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 3rd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
