What is Women History Month?
     Since the first Women’s History Week in 1978, other countries have joined the United States in honoring women and their contribution to history and culture, including Canada and Australia.Each year the National Women’s History Alliance chooses a theme for Women’s History Month. Previous themes have included "Women Taking the Lead to Save Our Planet"(2009) and "Celebrating Women in STEM" (2013). The theme for 2020 and 2021 is "Valiant Women of the Vote." (Learn about the fight for the right to vote.) And the theme for 2022 is “Women Providing Healing, Promoting Hope.” 

     Beyond the theme of the year, Women’s History Month continues the discussion of women and their contributions through activities such as museum exhibits and film screenings, and by encouraging the study of achievements by women year-round.

Anne Frank's Diary
     On her thirteenth birthday, just before they went into hiding, Anne was presented with a diary. During the two years in hiding, Anne wrote about events in the Secret Annex, but also about her feelings and thoughts. In addition, she wrote short stories, started on a novel and copied passages from the books she read in her Book of Beautiful Sentences. Writing helped her pass the time. 

​     When the Minister of Education of the Dutch government in England made an appeal on Radio Orange to hold on to war diaries and documents, Anne was inspired to rewrite her individual diaries into one running story, titled Het Achterhuis (The Secret Annex).

Questions for Parents to ask Children
  1. What makes someone a hero? Who are some women heroes that you have learned about?
  2. When looking at art created by women illustrators, designers, and painters, ask your child: What stands out to you first and why? Which women history story does this art tell you about or remind you of? Do the people look happy, sad, anxious? Why?
  3. Who are the women heroes who have broken barriers in history and today?
  4. What is a role model? Which women role models helped to make the world a better place? How can you be a role model at school or in your neighborhood?
  5. How have women have helped our country (or your community)?
