This book is a survey of world history that explores diverse women’s and gender history at the secondary reading level. With sample lesson plans and teaching activities, this guide aligns with curriculum and content already taught in secondary schools.
The book spans prehistory to the end of the 20th century, highlighting the lives of women in every region of the world, elite rulers and peasant women, as well as queer, trans, and non-binary people where known and relevant. The text is packed with primary source visuals to enhance student comprehension and make connections between the text and the real women who lived these stories. Each chapter concludes with an inquiry-based lesson plan for students and teachers to use that explores primary source material surrounding a compelling question, which is best practice according to the National Council for the Social Studies. The book also includes teacher guides on how to teach with the lesson plans, introductory activities, and teacher tips.
This is a key resource for secondary social studies teachers to integrate women’s and gender history into their current World History curriculum.
