Social Studies: U.S. History
- Grade: K
March is Women’s History Month. It is a time for thinking about women who have made a big difference in the world. Some of these women lived hundreds of years ago. Some of them are alive today.
One woman who made a big difference is Harriet Tubman. She was born in the United States around 1820. She was a slave. After she grew up, she ran away. Now she was free!
The next year she came back to help her sister escape. She came back again and again. Each time she helped more slaves escape.
The United States decided to honor women like Harriet Tubman in 1981. That was when Women’s History Week began. Six years later, it became Women’s History Month.
