Description
Have your students create a collaborative poster and learn about Susan B. Anthony in a fun, fresh, and engaging way! Through this activity, students will explore Anthony’s influential work as a suffragist, reformer, and champion of women’s rights. As they work together, they’ll also strengthen their teamwork and communication skills while contributing to one unified final product.
This project is perfect for Women’s History Month, social studies lessons, or units focused on civil rights and equality. Students will connect Anthony’s leadership and advocacy to broader themes of representation, perseverance, and social change.
Students will begin by researching Susan B. Anthony and gathering information about her background, accomplishments, and legacy. They’ll then record their findings in the designated sections on the poster before working together to color or paint and assemble the final display. Once completed, the six-piece poster can be printed on regular paper or cardstock and will measure approximately 28" x 15" when taped together. For long-lasting classroom use, you can laminate the finished product!
This resource includes student directions, a project rubric, and a brainstorm graphic organizer. It also includes six blank coloring pages that come together to form one cohesive poster, a Susan B. Anthony answer key, an example of the final project colored, and a digitally colored example to guide and inspire your students.
