Leaving a "Stamp" on History: Women's History Month Activity
This resource was so much fun for my students after we completed a research study on influential women who have been on U.S. Postage Stamps! After they researched women already on stamps, they selected a current (living) famous/influential woman who they think deserves to be on a stamp. They researched that woman and then wrote a persuasive paragraph about why she deserves a stamp. Then, they designed what that postage stamp would look like (this was their favorite part!)
