I think it is important because we learn about famous men. Also because women are equally hard working and are important to the species. âAlex
Pairing up in groups and studying about different suffragist women. I like studying about Lucy Stone. Lucy became a really powerful woman, even though she had a difficult life. â Stacy
The musical play. I liked acting like a woman who changed history. I really, really loved the songs. The songs had nice music and lyrics. â Meliza
The speech to the class. I like reading to other people. It was fun. â Bryan
The Winning A Voice play. It taught me how a lot of women had many hardships...now I understand how women suffered. â Emerson
Men thought women didn’t need the ballot...they were just there to clean, cook and cloth the body. Some men thought about equality though. â Maryssa
Because its hard to make changes...it takes a long time. â Chris
Because it was a big change...men were so used to having all that power that it was hard to change...I’m glad they finally did. â Jessica
History is about men, HerStory is about women. In HerStory we get to do fun activities. In history we have to learn about war and just read social studies books. HerStory is fun, but history is boring. â Sarah
In history only men were talked about...only one woman was in the history book we read. â Bryan
All the history books have mostly men in them...they don’t tell you about all the women who have changed the laws or done something really important for the world and society...women should be included in history books more often. It is wrong to have only men in history books because a lot of women do heroic things and don’t get noticed for it. â Haley
I will remember them when my Mom goes to vote. My Mom will get to vote because of the suffragists. â Jessie
I will remember that women fought as hard as they could to get freedom. Some tried so hard....some of them died. â Hammer
The women worked hard, long hours..for the vote which today some people take for granted. I’ll remember that! â Chris
It took great courage to fight for their rights...it was sad that none of the original suffragists lived to see the amendment passed. â Denise
They didn’t stop ’til they said âYES.’ Women are still fighting for freedom. â Robert |
