How have women’s rights evolved over time? Why is it important to study women’s history? In this dynamic reading class, students will explore the stories of trailblazing women who have shaped history by overcoming obstacles and challenging gender roles. Through compelling stories from Scholastic Scope magazines, we will dive into the journeys of courageous women who fought for change and helped redefine society’s expectations. Each class begins with reading a new story of an inspiring trailblazer, where students will analyze and discuss key themes like women’s rights, overcoming adversity, and challenging societal norms. After reading, students will complete a writing activity that helps reinforce comprehension skills and encourages thoughtful reflection. Students will learn how to analyze text evidence and make inferences. They will expand their vocabulary and improve reading fluency and also gain stronger reading comprehension strategies for understanding main ideas and details. This course is ideal for students who need support with reading comprehension or want to deepen their understanding of complex topics. Through small-group instruction, students will receive personalized attention while benefiting from collaborative learning with their peers. This format promotes confidence, reduces stress, and provides a more affordable alternative to one-on-one tutoring. This class is ongoing, allowing students to join at any time and engage in the stories that speak to their hearts and minds. Whether your child needs support catching up, staying on track, or challenging themselves further, this class offers a safe and inspiring environment for growth. Empower your child with the tools to succeed in reading and history! The material provided is at a grade 7-8 grade reading level. This is an ongoing class and students can come and go as needed.
