James Monroe High School’s French, German, and Journalism classes observed Women's History Month by researching and writing articles about women who have been recognized for their contributions over the years in various countries. French students prepared articles on French-speaking African, Canadian, and European women such as Gisèle Rabesahala from Madagascar, Aoua Keita from Mali, Jaqueline Moudeina from Chad, Marie-José Chombart de Lauwe from France, Kim Phuc from Vietnam, and Fatima Fihri from Morocco. German students prepared articles on German-speaking women from Germany, Switzerland, and Austria such as Gabriele Löschper, Bertha Von Suttner, Sophie Scholl, and Hannah Arendt. Journalism students prepared articles on American women such as Elizabeth Peratrovich, Belle Boyd, Jennifer Garner, Josephine Butler, and Vesta Stoudt. This project helped the students appreciate the significant contributions women, often unsung, have made around the world and through the centuries.
