Are you looking for some unique teen activities for Women's History month? Women have invented some incredible things to make our world a better place, but so many of these are unknown!
This resource highlights some of our amazing women inventors, to show our young students that anyone can achieve great things, regardless of gender.
There are 2 parts to the resource: a PowerPoint presentation with information to teach them about the inventors and what inspired them to invent their products. The second part comes with worksheets that students can use to summarise their learning and reflect on the achievements of these women. Alternatively, students could also do their own research to complete these sheets for homework.
Product includes:
• Mary Anderson (1866-1953) Inventor of Windshield Wipers
• Marion Donovan (1917-1998) Inventor of Disposable Diapers
• Bette Nesmith Graham (1924–1980) Inventor of Liquid Paper
• Ruth Handler (1916-2002) Inventor of the Barbie doll.
• Ruth Wakefield (1903-1977) Inventor of the Chocolate Chip Cookie
• Madam C.J. Walker (1867-1919) Inventor of Black Hair Care
These would look great on a display board or stapled into a booklet for students to keep.
So go on, inspire your girls and educate your young boys on the power of women!
