WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH- MESE DELLA STORIA DELLE DONNE- DONNE INCREDIBILI

I believe that women should be celebrated everyday! But March is that time of the year in which we remember the great women in our lives and in history that have made a difference in our world. With this unit, I want to honor ten incredible women who have excelled in different areas for different reasons all over the world. This is a beautiful unit that will allow your students to practice the target language by learning about the incredible lives and accomplishments of these incredible women. I wanted to include more Italian women but I could not find the graphics to support that idea. I am sure I will expand this unit in the future. Please know that I intentionally used passato prossimo instead of passato remoto in many cases to make the biographies more comprehensible for our students.

You will find short biographies of:

1.Rosa Parks

2.Marie Curie

3.Maria Montessori

4.Ruth Bader Ginsburg

5.Malala Yousafzai

6.Frida Kahlo

7.Jane Goodall

8.Madre Teresa

9.Simone Biles

10. Greta Thunberg

11.Gallery walk-check for comprehension activity

You can use these resources as a presentation in your class and ask your students comprehension questions about this, or you can do a gallery walk, as it is suggested in here. This is a fun activity that will incorporate some movement in your class.
