Women's History Project

We use the picture book Dinner at Aunt Connie's by Faith Ringgold. In the story, the little girl's aunt is a painter, and each year, she has an exhibition.The paintings in the gallery the day she visits are all famous women in black history. Some are well known like Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks, and others are less well-known.My kids used the internet to research these women (and the author, Faith Ringgold). Then, they made their own portraits of these women and we are displaying them on a bulletin board outside our classroom. Have fun!
