Welcome to Litsy!

“The biggest adventure you can ever take is to live the life of your dreams”

I read this book to my 4 year old to share some stories about women overcoming and persisting through tough times and it is an absolute amazing picture book!

My daughters really loved this one 🥰

“She Persisted” was written by Chelsea Clinton and illustrated by Alexandra Boiger. This is an incredible NF B book that would work perfectly as an RT! The book contains 13 vignettes of strong women who “PERSISTED” and changed the world even when people told them they couldn‘t do it. It would be amazing for students to take the roles of each individual woman and perform the RT as a class. Highly recommend! Such an incredible book! #ucflae3414su20

The reading level of one of these books is 7th grade which is highly unusual for any book much less a picture book. Both are beautiful!

This NF picturebook shares the stories of 13 women who “persisted,“ from Helen Keller to Ruby Bridges. These women changed the narrative of what a woman can do and be, no matter the starting place. It's an inspiring book to share with the class through CR. One UDL & EL strategy is: Build fluencies with graduated levels of support for practice and performance (5.3) and 4. Link lesson topic to students‘ prior knowledge. #UCFLAE3414SP20

“Harriett Tubman was born a slave.“

I enjoyed this book. I would read this to my classroom because it is for everyone who has ever wanted to speak up but has been told to keep quiet. This book is a great read or children, especially women, to always strive for what you want and follow your dreams.

This is a nonfiction book about the power of Women- women who speak up for their rights and what is right. The book includes very famous feminists who have spoken up for their rights and defended themselves and other women. This book is presented in a clear way that young children can understand. The author uses sources and facts and they are accurate.

“So if anyone ever tells you no, if anyone ever says your voice isn't important or your dreams are too big, remember these women. They persisted and so should you.“

Look at the artwork! I love the use of the material (whatever that medium may be).

Great inspiration NF biography book. A great way to introduce students to some Great women of our American History.March is National Women‘s History month, this will be a great book to read to the class . For classroom activity , we will do a “Alphabet Organizer”. For every letter of the alphabet the class will add a historical name or any category previously chosen. It will be interesting to see if all the letters will be filled.

#GetMovin Day 28: These 13 women who persisted are clearly #Fighter(s). Each of the women come from different disciplines or professions: from being a journalist to conductor of the underground railroad, from a medical doctor to a Supreme Court Justice. As Florence Griffith Joyner stated: When anyone tells me I can‘t do anything, I‘m just not listening anymore. Full review here: https://gatheringbooks.org/2018/04/16/monday-reading-85/

Parts of this book are really sweet and uplifting, and the illustrations are adorable. What bothered me was the bizarre tone she took for a couple entries. The idea that if you want to be more than JUST a US representative AND a US senator, you need to persist is weird. Opening on Harriet Tubman was great until there was the implication that persistence is all anyone needed to escape slavery. There are better books of this type.

Short stories for middle grade about 13 remarkable women. Most were familiar but one or two weren't. Good for young girls to have some role models beyond pop singers and reality TV stars.

I‘m in love with this NF/B book. Written by none other but Chelsea Clinton herself, this book tells the story of many different women who have made a change and taken a step in the right direction for women‘s rights. This book is not only for girls but for everyone as it tells an amazing story and teaches incredible lessons of equality. I cannot wait to read the sequel. Everyone should read this book! #ucflae3414sp18
