Women’s History Month is in March, and International Women’s Day is March 8th. Celebrate with some library books about women’s history! I hand-selected each book to ensure diversity in culture, country, and time period. The booktalk slides includes 32 picture books, middle grade, and YA fiction and nonfiction titles, all themed for Women’s History Month.
The link below is for Google Slides, but if you prefer PowerPoint, you can find the PPT version of this Women’s History Month Digital Booktalk in my Free Resource Library (subscribe to get the password via email).
SLIDESHOW: WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH DIGITAL BOOKTALK
The booktalk slideshow is editable in Google Slides. Please feel free to make a copy and edit it for your library as you wish. I’ve included lots of popular books that are found in many libraries, but you can easily add your own library books, too.
Play the slides on a timed loop in the library or hallway to encourage students to explore women’s history topics and influential women throughout history.
To download the digital booktalk presentation, click the link underneath the slideshow below. Click “make a copy” when the message pops up to make a copy in your Google Drive. You can then edit it to include books from your school library.
I included some fantastic titles below, many of which have starred professional reviews. Some have also won book awards, so it can also make a great collection development tool. I also plan to update these slides from time to time to add new titles!
