This resource includes an assembly plan and 19 slide PowerPoint for you to use for Women’s History Month or International Women’s Day on 8th March. You can use it without any further preparation.
The assembly is suitable to use with KS2 or secondary aged children. The slideshow provides the opportunity to discuss why we might focus on women’s history, before moving on to give details on how women’s circumstances changed from ancient times to today. There are 10 slides which outline key achievements of 10 different women, from Marie Curie to J K Rowling.
The plan (pdf) gives details about how to use the slideshow. I like to lead assemblies that are interactive and relevant to the children’s lives, so the plan gives plenty of opportunity for children to discuss ideas, give feedback and reflect.
The PowerPoint and plan are in the zip file. The PowerPoint is not editable. Please click ‘Read Only’ to open. Some of the images are only revealed when the PowerPoint is played as a slideshow with the animations.
