International Women's Day Word Scramble – Unscramble HERstory

I created this activity for my 6th graders to celebrate March 8th, and it sparked our best discussion yet about women's rights. Students race to unscramble 24 empowering terms like "suffrage," "trailblazer," and "Malala"—then match them to historic achievements on page 2. The class erupted when someone solved "GNIREENGE" (engineer) and realized it matched Katherine Johnson's NASA work!

✔ Bonus "Women Who Changed the World" timeline activity
